A doctor is speaking up about the surge in cancer cases among young people - revealing 'every new patient' that comes to his clinic is under 45 years old.
North Carolina's Duke University oncologist Dr Nicholas DeVito says he and his colleagues have experienced a complete demographic switch in recent years.
Based on what he's seeing everyday, talking to patients on the ground and analyzing the data, he blames the rise of junk food diets.
Nearly 75 percent of food consumed in the US is considered ultra-processed and it is teeming with additives and potentially harmful ingredients.
Numerous studies have found an association between a high ultra-processed foods (UPFs) diet and more than 30 conditions, including multiple cancers, and an early grave.
...
The physician wrote for STAT News: 'The desire to protect Americans from substances that cause cancer and other diseases should transcend party affiliation and political motivation to overcome industrial lobbying efforts.
...
Between 1990 and 2019, cases of cancer in young people across the globe increased by 79 percent and deaths rose 28 percent.
The US has the sixth highest rate of early-onset cancers - disease in people under 50 - with 87 cases per 100,000 people younger than 50 years old.
And studies project diagnoses of early-onset cancers will rise by 31 percent and deaths will rise by 21 percent by 2030.
Cancers increasing the fastest include throat and prostate cancers. Early-onset cancers with the highest mortality include breast, tracheal (windpipe), lung, stomach and colon.
...
Dr DeVito wrote: 'I hope to have a long career in oncology and eventually practice in an era where the US has turned the tide against early-onset gastrointestinal cancers and few, if any, of my patients are under age 50.'

There’s a reason Deep State is screwing with medical coding.
And the reason ain’t processed food, is it...
No, not necessarily to death, but to chronic, long term health problems we are told we need a lifetime of medicine to deal with.
The heck with eating well.
I just posted a link to an interview Tucker Carlson did that includes a good sized segment on foods and how the standard American diet and food growing and processing methods are destroying our health.
The food in Europe is much much better.
I saw that interview. Very enlightening. The nonsense that is going on in relation to how our food is created and the stranglehold the pharma industry has, geez, to completely do away with all this would require a complete overthrow of the food and drug industry.
About 30+ years ago when mr. mm and I got married, we decided to start eating better. He liked butter. I grew up on margarine. Butter was too expensive for my family’s budget. Looking back, while both my parents worked, we barely made ends meet.
Anyways, the margarine I found that tasted most like butter was *I Can’t Believe it’s Not Butter*. Now mind you, I have a science degree and understand chemical names and how to pronounce them.
I read the list of ingredients and even *I* couldn’t pronounce or recognize some of them. That decided it for us. We went for straight butter. I figured my body knew what to do with butter, which was real food.
We also after a bit, switched to brown, whole grain rice. Now we prefer it’s flavor.
It’s been a slow process changing our diet, but not unmanageable since we did it in small steps.
I envy you. Are there many expats over there? ;-)
Indeed.
I grow my own veggies and spices, and can, freeze, or dehydrate them every summer.
It saves a fortune over what stores charge for spices, and I know what’s in them. After going through the trouble of cleaning and dehydrating herbs, there’s NO WAY the companies can ensure that kind of purity, eg, no bugs, disease, or weeds mixed in.
Grow enough garlic to feed an army too, and usually give some away as Christmas gifts.
Anti vaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxine propaganda is dangerous.
Dr. Bill Gates and his team have determined that man made CO2 will eventually destroy Earth. Each person alive produces X number of tons of atmospheric CO2 (depends on where they live, the more developed the country, the higher their CO2 contribution is)
By using vaxxxxxxines, the sheep will get in line and voluntarily be injected. Some will have no immediate effects, some will be sterile, some will have serious health effects and even some will die almost immediately. But ALL will have their lives shortened!
So you and other right wing extremists MUST stop talking about vaxxxxxxxines causing TURBO CANCERS so vaxxxxxxine hesitancy will NOT increase. STOP Immediately or else. /sarc
RUMBLE VIDEO Dr. Ryan Cole-7-12 SIGMA increase in cancer
Only the dumbest of the dumb do NOT understand the significance of a 7 sigma increase in cancers. And many are being called TURBO CANCERS because they are fast growing and VERY resistant to treatment.
About this time some ignorant moron with a medical degree will add that CORRELATION DOES NOT PROVE CAUSATION. Yes, medical schools train their students to say things like this that are truly stupid. But don't worry, the majority of them got COVID vaxxxxxxine injected.
It’s still good here.
Just eat the right stuff. Shop along the walls of the supermarket.
So many students and kids just out of college survive on Top Ramen or similar. That can't be good.
Life being what it is, there is no one single cause. But there are two causes working together.
There are large amounts of market space used for various forms of carbohydrates. Whole aisles are filled with noodles, chips,crackers, cookies, tortillas, and cereals. This is what you get when farmers can grow things so efficiently. The problem with them is the manufacturers make them so damned good. I can eat a whole 8 oz bag of Lay’s potato chips, for a total of 1,296 calories, by myself. But, I don’t.
Clot Shot was My first thought too.
2nd Law of Thermodynamics.
Obesity has also surged among the young. Its now the norm, just look at photos from the 60s, 70s and 80s.
Pasta and bread in Italy versus regular pasta and bread here in the USA. It has something to do with gluten in our wheat. Food differences are not just in additives and ultra processed foods, but in what chemicals are permitted during the growing process.
All grains or just wheat? Did you notice a difference in your health and/or your physical comfort?
Thank goodness for that most safe and affective vaxseen¿
Nothing to see here move along.
For drugs/ treatments that go through the normal FDA approval process, wait until they've been on the market for at least 10 years. You need to give them time for the recalls to happen.
Thanks. Didn’t catch it.
We were so much a non-cooking household that I assumed everyone else ate healthy except us. Mother’s best dish was refried spaghetti. Cooked hamburger, cooked spaghetti, covered in catsup and fried dry.
One of my favorite images of grandmother was standing in the kitchen doorway holding the cake layer she’d just popped out of the pan and bending it back and forth while laughing happily. They might not have been great cooks, but they both had a great sense of humor.
