Yes, it can be a very positive benefit. And that's what we are told to focus on. Think positively! But that's not the way it always works in the real world, as shown by this study.
For example, some have been helped by colonoscopies and some have been killed. If you only look at the ones that have been helped, which is what the medical community wants you to do, you will think there are nothing but good outcomes. There's a book on this subject:
"Death by Colonoscopy" by Dr. Kaayla Daniel
