March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Why do we bring this up? Because it’s the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the US. Just last year, ~152,810 Americans received a diagnosis of colon or rectal cancer.

The good news? ~90% of colon cancer deaths are preventable with early detection.

That’s why Labcorp OnDemand has made it easier than ever to test from the comfort of your own home toilet.

Why consider the ColoFIT Home Collection Test?

  1. Taking proactive measures: Colorectal cancer is usually slow-growing in the early stages — that means if your test detects symptoms (like hidden blood in your stool), you can get ahead of the potential cancer while it’s still curable.
  2. Looking for at-home options: We don’t want to poop anywhere but our own house, either. For those at average risk and not currently experiencing symptoms, this at-home test is an incredibly convenient first step (no prep work needed). See exactly how it works.
  3. It may run in your family: Some individuals are at higher risk due to personal or family history of colorectal cancer or polyps. If you already know you’re at higher risk, talk to your healthcare provider.
  4. We’re giving you an exclusive discount: Use code 6AMCITY for 20% off your order.
