Variations in gut bacteria could prove key in predicting the onset of colon cancer, a new study suggests.

European researchers identified differences in the gut microbiome of people who developed pre-cancerous colonic lesions, suggesting a potential connection between gut bacteria and the onset of colorectal lesions and cancers.
