You've probably heard the message: "Get your colonoscopy." But what if there's more to colon health than a single procedure?
The truth is, a colonoscopy is just one option among several—and screening alone doesn't address what's actually happening inside your body. Your colon is a living environment shaped by factors you can influence every single day: what you eat, how well things move through your system, the balance of bacteria in your gut, and your exposure to everyday toxins.
This workshop gives you the full picture.
We'll walk through the screening options you may not know exist—from at-home stool tests to virtual colonography—so you can make an informed choice based on your situation, not a one-size-fits-all recommendation. We'll also dive into the root-cause factors that shape your colon's "terrain" and what you can do right now to create an environment where problems are less likely to develop in the first place.
What you'll learn:
- The different screening options available (and what each one actually detects)
- Why polyps form—and what your body may be trying to tell you
- The four terrain factors that influence your colon health: transit time, microbial diversity, inflammation, and toxin load
- Practical steps to protect your colon at the root-cause level
- Questions to ask before any procedure so you can advocate for yourself
This is about understanding. When you know what's actually going on inside your body—and what you can control—you stop guessing and start making choices that matter.
