The key excerpt from the article:
The review's authors say the upswing in younger adults is happening in part because of more sensitive testing for some cancer types, such as thyroid cancer. But testing doesn't completely account for the trend... [Study co-author notes] established links to cancer like obesity, inactivity, diabetes, alcohol, smoking, environmental pollution and Western diets high in red meat and added sugars, not to mention shift work and lack of sleep. "And there are many unknown risk factors as well, like a pollutant or like food additives. Nobody knows."
[Study co-author] thinks the fact that so many of these cancers – 8 out of 14 studied – involve the digestive system points to a big role for diet and the bacteria that live in our gut, called the microbiome.
[...]
Take obesity. Once, it was rare. Not only has it become more common to have a dangerously high body mass index, but people are becoming obese earlier in life, even in childhood, so these cancer risks are building decades earlier than they did for previous generations.
In other words, stop getting so fvcking fat, you lazy a$$holes.
