Cancer that develops in the colon or rectum is called colorectal cancer. Depending on where the disease first appears, it may also go by the names colon cancer or rectal cancer. Because they share many characteristics, rectal cancer and colon cancer are sometimes classed together.
If you are also fond of eating fast food, then you should be careful because long-term consumption of pizza, burgers, biscuits, cold drinks and a variety of ultra-processed foods can increase the risk of colon cancer.
