Why is this test important

• Cancer of the bowel is the third most common cancer in the UK
  
• It usually takes around 5-10 years for colon cancer formation
  
• Therefore early detection is very important and can save lives
  
• Everyone over the age of 40 should perform a yearly fecal occult blood test in order to minimise risk and detect colon polps (precursors of cancer)
