About this listen

Cancer used to be something you worried about later in life — but not anymore. More and more young adults are being diagnosed, and doctors are trying to figure out why this is happening. Dr. Sanjay Gupta talks with oncologist Dr. Kimmie Ng about what’s behind this rise, why colorectal cancer is leading the trend, and the signs you shouldn’t ignore. You can find more information and resources at the Young-Onset Colorectal Cancer Center at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This episode was produced by Kyra Dahring.
