Evaluation of Pre-Diagnosis Dietary Habits of Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of lifestyle and obesity on colorectal cancer patients. Material and Methods: The study was conducted on 40 patients with colorectal cancer (Patient Group- PG) who received diagnosis in the past 6 months and 40 volunteer adult controls (Control Group- CG) who did not have any digestive system disorders and/or diagnosis of cancer. The questionnaire form, which was developed in order to determine the lifestyle and dietary habits of the individuals, was completed by the patients and the individuals in CG. Anthropometric measurements were taken by the researcher. Results: The general mean age of the individuals was 59.8 ± 10.3 years in the PG and 59.6 ± 10.6 years in the CG. It was found out that CRC history was present in 10% of the individuals with CRC and the history of other cancer types was present in the families of 32.5% of the individuals with CRC. The pre-diagnostic body weights of the individuals in the patient group were found to be higher than the body weights during the study. Sunflower oil consumption is 87.5% among the individuals in the PG and 67.5% among the individuals in the CG (p
