Core Tip	Obesity and its related metabolic disorders increase the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Many studies using obese animal models have been conducted to investigate the chemoprevention of CRC using pharmaceutical or nutritional interventions. Lipid-lowering and anti-hypertensive medicines suppress the development of colonic preneoplastic lesions in obese mice. Green tea catechins improve metabolic disorders and prevent the development of CRC. The administration of branched-chain amino acids may be effective for suppressing obesity-related CRC. This review summarizes recent evidence that suggests that targeting metabolic alterations may be an effective strategy for preventing the development of CRC in obese individuals.
