 Lifetime heavy drinking sharply raises colorectal cancer risk, major US study findsLifetime heavy drinking sharply raises colorectal cancer risk, major US study finds
 
Lifetime alcohol intake, not just recent drinking, is associated with colorectal cancer risk in older adults followed in the PLCO Cancer Screening Trial. Heavy and consistent long-term drinking was linked to higher colorectal cancer risk, while alcohol cessation was associated with lower odds of early, nonadvanced adenomas.

Studies have demonstrated a link between alcohol consumption and an elevated risk of colorectal cancer. New research now reveals that higher lifetime alcohol consumption is also associated with a higher risk,
 
   How modern lifestyles reprogram the gut microbiome and shape disease riskHow modern lifestyles reprogram the gut microbiome and shape disease risk
 
Modern lifestyle factors such as circadian disruption, sleep deprivation, stress, and exercise reshape the gut bacteriome and its metabolic outputs. These microbiome changes are linked to immune, metabolic, and cancer-related pathways, largely through evidence from animal models and observational human studies.
 
   Discovery explains why people with IBD have higher risk of colorectal cancerDiscovery explains why people with IBD have higher risk of colorectal cancer
 
A chain of immune reactions in the gut—driven by a key signaling protein and a surge of white blood cells from the bone marrow—may help explain why people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a higher risk of colorectal cancer, according to a preclinical study by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.
