Canadian guidelines recommend that average risk * individuals aged 50-74, be screened every 2 years for colorectal cancer via a FIT (stool test). Although this at-home screening test is simple, effective and pain free, participation rates remain alarmingly low.

*average risk: People aged 50-74 with no symptoms and no previous personal or family history or related syndromes.
