Selfcheck Bowel Health Test Kit. 1 Test.
A simple and reliable test to detect symptoms of colon polyps.
Sterile rapid test to detect the first symptoms of colon polyps, adenomas, carcinomas and other silent lesions.
Detects occult (hidden) bleeding: 0.14ul blood / 1g stool (highly specific for human haemoglobin).
Fast & reliable - visible result within 5 minutes.
This test has been extensively evaluated by the largest European screening study (150,000 people over a period of 5 years).
Why is this test important?
Cancer of the bowel is the third most common cancer in the UK.
It usually takes around 5-10 years for colon cancer formation.
Therefore early detection is very important and can save lives.
Everyone over the age of 40 should perform a yearly fecal occult blood test in order to minimise risk and detect colon polyps (precursors of cancer).
