First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study tested whether a mindfulness program could help reduce colorectal cancer risk factors in Black women aged 45-65 who live in high-crime Chicago neighborhoods and have had a colon polyp. Twenty-four women participated to see if the program was feasible and acceptable. The goal was to learn if stress reduction through mindfulness might lower cancer risk, not to treat or cure cancer.
