The patients were divided into two categories, group I with colon adenomas on colonoscopy examination and group II with normal findings on colonoscopy. When both groups were compared findings on colonoscopy, sex, age, habits that were evaluated on the basis of completing the questionnaire / (FFQ) food-frequency questionnaire / which is modified for the needs of our region, taking certain types of drugs / acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) / anthropological measurements / height, weight, BMI, waist / hip ratio / alcohol consumption, smoking, blood group determination, lipids, glucose level, HbA1C and insulin values and HOMA index. Conclusion: Research showed a significance between colon adenoma and consuming fish, veal, lamb, veal and vegetables with an emphasis on garlic and intake of citrus, stone fruits and nuts as foods that reduce the risk of adenoma, and as a risk factors consuming pork, potatoes, soft drinks and alcohol. Anthropological measurement of waist / hip index proved to be an important risk factor for colon adenoma and body weight, male sex, and age of the patients, while BMI index did not show significance. The values of HbA1C, insulin level and Homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) index are referred to as a significant factor in assessing the risk of colon adenoma and positive Rh factor. Glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, the use of drugs NSAIDs and ASA are not singled out as a statistically significant.
