I used to read in a book that eating more powder can prevent bowel cancer. Can starch really prevent bowel cancer?

    Starch has a protective effect on the intestine, and can prevent intestinal cancer. After starch enters the colon, bacteria in the colon break it down. During the decomposition process, starch accelerates the discharge of waste products that may cause bowel cancer from the digestive tract.
