Gut Health and the Importance of Colorectal Cancer Screening - Red Table Talk

Watch the December 22, 2021 episode of Red Table Talk on gut health with our team – Dr. Fola May, Dr. Guy Weiss and GI dietitian Nancee Jaffe. Run time ~23 minutes. Jada, Gammy and Jaden sit down with medical and dietary experts to solve the gut problems that have plagued them for years. Plus, Jada and Gammy allow cameras to follow them to the hospital as they get a colonoscopy - a colorectal cancer screening that everyone will need at some point in their life.
