Washington: Medical experts have derived from recent research that weight loss can reduce the risks of colon cancer.
According to the news agencies, researchers have recently discovered through a new study that medications for diabetes and weight loss drugs can be beneficial in reducing the risks of colorectal cancer.
This effort was made by researchers at Cleveland’s Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in the United States, and the findings were published in a journal. According to the study, individuals who had been diagnosed with diabetes and had taken any medication, such as metformin or insulin, experienced reduced possibilities of colorectal cancer compared to others.
Co-author of the study, Rong Xu, mentioned that according to our knowledge, this is the first indication that weight loss and diabetes medications reduce the chances of colorectal cancer incidents.
The research involved the results of 1.2 million individuals diagnosed with diabetes, whose medical records were stored in the National Database. All of them had undergone diabetes treatment with some form of medication between 2005 and 2019, leading to a reduction in the possibility of colorectal cancer.
