Digestive Health SmartBrief provides timely information about gastrointestinal problems, including colon and rectal cancer, for consumers.  Sponsored by the American College of Gastroenterology, it includes medically accurate tips for daily life for people with a wide range of GI issues.

You can sign up for a free weekly newsletter delivered to your email each Wednesday.  If you include the name of your gastroenterologist, contact information for that doctor will be included in your e-newsletter.  However, it is not necessary to do so.

You can read a sample issue here.

The HealthBrief does contain advertising.

The American College of Gastroenterology also provides patient information on its website, including where to find a gastroenterologist and a fact sheet on colon cancer.
