Doctor Explores Colon Cancer Surge in Young People After Twin's Diagnosis
Brinlee Luster, a 21-year-old from Utah, was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer while her twin sister, Mariela, remained healthy despite their similar lifestyles. Brinlee's symptoms, initially dismissed as anxiety and stress, escalated until a colonoscopy confirmed the diagnosis. Mariela underwent a colonoscopy as well, revealing polyps, which can potentially develop into cancer. Oncologist Dr. Mark Lewis highlighted a concerning trend of increasing colon cancer cases among young people, linking potential causes to lifestyle factors, genetics, and antibiotic use in childhood. He emphasized that there is no age too young for colon cancer and urged open discussions about gut health with healthcare providers. This case reflects the ongoing mystery surrounding the rising rates of colon cancer in younger demographics.
