Break the Stigma

Partners in Advocacy

Join GH Foundation and Big Mike’s Bottom Line as they partner to break the stigma and educate for change.

Want to know the easiest way to bring gastrointestinal health issues to light? Simply talk about it. It’s really that easy. Bring it up with the people in your daily life. Educate your loved ones about the risk of neglecting their gastro health. This alone goes so far in removing the stigma.

Why is it so important to talk to your family about gastro health? Because many patients with early-onset colorectal cancer have a family history of the diagnosis. Late-stage diagnoses could have been prevented or more easily treated with earlier care. Ask your relatives if there’s a history of colorectal cancer or polyps — the precursor to cancer — in your family. If so, you may be at an increased risk.

Getting informed is the best way to become your own biggest health advocate. When you’re armed with knowledge, you can take control of your future and your health.

GH Foundation

The GH Foundation is shining a light on gastro health. We know all too well that talking about gastrointestinal health feels — well, uncomfortable. But we also know that avoiding discussions about digestive issues can lead to serious health consequences.

Our founders have both been personally affected by colorectal cancer and are passionate about educating and empowering others to be their own advocates for health.

By breaking the silence and normalizing conversations about poop, colonoscopies, and everything in between, we can help you become proactive about your health and detect potential problems early on.
