| Cancer rates rising in young people due to ‘accelerated aging,' new study finds: ‘Highly troubling' |

| [FoxNews] Accelerated aging — when someone’s biological age is greater than their chronological age — could increase the risk of cancer tumors. That’s according to new research presented this week at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting in San Diego, California. "Historically, both cancer and aging have been viewed primarily as concerns for older populations," Ruiyi Tian, MPH, a graduate student at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and one of the study researchers, told Fox News Digital. "The realization that cancer, and now aging, are becoming significant issues for younger demographics over the past decades was unexpected." In the study, diagnoses in patients younger than 55 years old were considered early-onset cancers. The researchers analyzed data from 148,724 people using the UK Biobank database. They estimated each person’s biological age using nine biomarkers in the blood — then compared that to their chronological age. Those with a higher biological age had a 42% increased risk of early-onset lung cancer, were 22% more prone to early-onset gastrointestinal cancer, and had a 36% higher risk for early-onset uterine cancer. |

| #3 There is a relationship between stress and cancers. GenZ is just starting to grasp the situation they're in. |
