Additionally, patients receiving drug therapy for hypercholesterolemia will be excluded. 8. Prior bowel resection surgery. 9. Contraindication to flexible sigmoidoscopy and biopsies. Patients with suppressed white blood count may be at increased risk of systemic infection following sigmoidoscopy with biopsies. As such, subjects with a white blood cell (WBC) count less than 3,500 or an absolute neutrophil count of less than 1,000 will be excluded. Patients with thrombocytopenia or with a coagulopathy may be at increased risk of bleeding complications after colonoscopic biopsies. As such, patients with a platelet count of less than 100,000 or an international normalized ratio (INR) greater than 1.2 will be excluded from the study. 10.
