Introduction:: During the last 20 years, the prevalence of colon cancer, among the most prevalent gastrointestinal cancers globally, has increased in the majority of nations. The current review compiled phytochemicals reported to manage colon cancer from 2015 to 2020. Methods:: The article is taken from various sources of Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Elsevier, Research Gate, and PubChem Results:: Colon cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide and impacts both men and women. Because of the present dietary habits and lifestyle, which include eating a lot of meat, drinking alcohol, and not exercising enough, the death rate from colon cancer has increased globally. A robust gastrointestinal tract and the control of regular intestinal activity seem to be significantly influenced by dietary fiber Discussion:: The prognosis for colon cancer is dismal, as it is frequently discovered at an advanced stage. Despite some evidence suggesting a diet low in fibre predisposes to colon carcinogenesis. The use of phytochemicals may help in the management of colon cancer. Conclusion:: By altering many signalling pathways involved in the control of chronic inflammation, the cell cycle, autophagy, apoptotic metastasis, and angiogenesis, these natural compounds have been shown to have anticolon cancer properties. Compounds such as Ellagitannin, Ursolic acid, Garcinol, Oxymatrine, Emodin, Catalpol, Resveratrol, Zerumbone, Curcumin, Pyrogallol, α-Hederin, Juglone, Zingerone, Brosimone I, Organosilicon, Myricetin, Tenacissoside H, 6,8-Diprenylorobol, Plumbagin, Dioscin, and many more are listed with their mechanisms of action.
