Colon cancer is mainly caused by mutation or methylation of tumor suppressor genes which results in un-controlled proliferation of cells and hence cancer. Diet plays very important role in both mutations and methylation of tumor suppressor genes so these conditions can be reversed or improved by balanced diet.
