Verbatim
“Our findings show that while cancer rates are rising in younger adults, the trends are unlikely to be explained by changes in most known behavioral risk factors. Excess weight is an important contributor, although it cannot fully account for the scale of the rise in bowel and other cancers. This tells us that multiple factors—including early‑life exposures—may be acting together.”
