It is useful for visible blood.

Which is much too late for viable bowel cancer detection.

Nope.

Any blood in faeces is a warning sign of something wrong.

Wrong, as always. Its usually just haemorrhoids.

Got there in the end.

but a duller shade usually means its come from higher up the digestive
tract.

But when its visible, its much too late for viable bowel cancer detection..

Nope.

So any blood in faeces is a warning and
