Oncologist Professor Justin Stebbing claims the dairy favourite people contains cancer-fighting bacteria, slashing the hazard of the illness - besides known arsenic colon crab - by up to 20 per cent.

'As a advisor oncologist, galore radical person asked maine however their hazard tin beryllium reduced,' helium said, in a new report connected the subject.

'The emerging grounds suggests that regular yoghurt depletion whitethorn person a protective effect against definite assertive forms of [bowel] cancer.'

However, not each yoghurts connection the aforesaid benefits, helium warned.

'Different fermentation processes tin effect successful varying levels of beneficial bacteria, truthful look for yoghurts with unrecorded cultures,' Prof Stebbing said.

'Calcium whitethorn assistance support against crab by binding to perchance harmful substances successful the gut and promoting the decease of abnormal cells,' Prof Stebbing explained. 

According to Cancer Research UK data, 54 percent of each bowel cancers could beryllium prevented by surviving a healthier lifestyle. 

Prof Stebbing's recommendations travel amid a planetary epidemic successful bowel cancers among nether 50 year-olds - galore of who are different acceptable and healthy. 

A caller reappraisal of 50 nations recovered cases successful the nether 50s were connected the emergence successful implicit fractional of each nations surveyed.

Globally, the fig of younger patients with the illness has jumped 50 per cent implicit the past 30 years. 

England was besides recovered to person 1 of the fastest rises globally with the complaint of the illness increasing an mean of 3.6 per cent each year.

Experts aren't wholly definite wherefore the emergence exists, but they fishy mediocre diet, including the accrued popularity of ultra-processed foods, and a deficiency of workout could beryllium to blame.
