Lakewood, CO -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/17/2015 -- Colorectal cancer strikes between 200 thousand and three million people in the U.S. annually. Considered mostly a "Western" disease, this killer is less likely to affect the people of Asia and Africa because of the limited fat content in their diet. President Clinton declared March to be Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, and during the month of March people are asked to wear the color blue because a blue star has been designated as the symbol to not only fight against colorectal cancer, but as a tribute to those whose lives have been lost to the disease.

A representative of MyIdentityDoctor.com talked about colorectal cancer and medical alert jewelry for men, "At MyIdentityDoctor.com we encourage disease prevention through education, and we also encourage health maintenance by wearing one of our bracelets for cancer patients or other medical ID bracelets. Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Fortunately, cancer deaths caused by this disease have actually been on the decline for the past twenty years because of improved screening, and by patients wearing medical ID bracelet to inform EMT's and doctors that they have the disease if they aren't able to verbalize the information themselves."
