The new season of Lady Bites opens with a conversation a lot of us feel awkward talking about. In this episode, Aoife, Ciara and Louise discuss bowel cancer, including the key risk factors, common signs and symptoms to look out for, and the importance of screening in detecting cancer at an early stage when treatment is most effective.

They also explore the concerning rise in bowel cancer diagnoses among younger adults, examining what current research tells us and why awareness of symptoms is important regardless of age.

Thanks as always to our friend Jeremy Roske for his track, A Little Love.
