Neo, Iâm slow in getting to this conversation. But, in case you didnât get an answer here is what ChatGPT says:
Menadione (Vitamin K3) is a synthetic compound that is not commonly found in natural food sources. However, it is sometimes used in animal feed and supplements due to its vitamin K activity. Unlike natural forms of vitamin K, such as:
- Vitamin K1 (Phylloquinone) â Found in leafy green vegetables (spinach, kale, broccoli).
- Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone) â Found in fermented foods, animal products, and certain cheeses.
Menadione is not typically used in human dietary supplements due to concerns about potential toxicity at high doses. Instead, natural vitamin K sources are preferred for human nutrition.
Vitamin D to help prevent Colon CancerâŚ

Metformin is the most widely prescribed diabetes drug in the world.
-
Scientists believe the drug has some colon-cancer prevention benefits.
-
New research provides hints about its use as a supplemental colon-cancer treatment.
A cheap, widely prescribed diabetes drug that some doctors have called a âwonder drugâ may hold promise as a colon-cancer-fighting supplement.
Scientists who presented at the American Association for Cancer Research conference in Chicago last week are studying how metformin â the most popular diabetes medication worldwide â interacts with tough-to-treat colon cancer cells. Their research is still early and ongoing.
Based on what Loomans-Kropp and her team have seen so far in cell-culture dishes, metformin could become a helpful âsupplementâ to certain cancer treatment regimens in the future. It wouldnât be potent enough to treat cancer on its own, but could be used alongside other treatments.
There are 3 facts that I have learned about the type of colon cancer that is affecting young people that I have found to be true for me.
-
All of the polyps are in the rectum and the length of colon on the side closest to the rectum.
-
Even though I have tried various supplements and interventions to prevent colon polyps none of them have worked. I still have 2-3 of the dangerous precancerous polyps removed every 3 years when I have a colonoscopy.
-
If I had not had the first polyps removed in my early 30s, I would probably be fighting advanced stage colon cancer or dead by now.
A colonoscopy is the only way, IMHO, to find and remove this deadly cancer before it develops. Fortunately this method is VERY effective and not that expensive compared to the price of cancer.
Regular colonoscopies have been the first and best longevity intervention I have ever tried!
How do you know to look the first time at this younger age?
I had heard about people developing cancer and dying in their mid 40s. It takes about 10 years for the polyps to turn into cancer. So, that meant I should check around age 35. Also my father had polyps so it concerned me. If you are 35 or over, I believe itâs good to get a colonoscopy.
If no polyps are found, you can try again a decade later. If the doctor finds many polyps, as in my case, then you do one every 3 years from then on.
Even though I know I am prone to developing colon cancer, I now have peace of mind as my doctor can remove the polyps faster than they can turn into cancer!
The alternative is a living nightmare of colon cancer.
