Did you know colon cancer rates in adults under 50 have more than doubled since the 1990s? We’re covering some of the most talked-about medical headlines and celebrity health news, including:

• 5 years since his passing, Chadwick Boseman’s private battle with colon cancer changed public conversations forever. We’ll tackle myths vs. facts about screening guidelines and diet, and reflect on Dominique Thorne’s moving memories from “Black Panther.” How did Boseman’s story impact your own health decisions? Let’s talk about it.
• We’ll also break down what dementia REALLY means, using Bruce Willis’ journey with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) to highlight symptoms families often miss. Have you ever wondered how FTD differs from Alzheimer’s or why language can disappear before memory?
• Next up: Billy Porter’s sepsis scare. We’ll arm you with the “TIME” acronym, because knowing when to act could save a life.
• And don’t miss our deep dive into Selena Gomez's invisible fight with lupus and arthritis, plus a look at Chagas disease, the so-called "kissing bug" illness. It's now making waves in the U.S.
