Rectum cancer is becoming an increasingly serious problem and, more importantly, it is increasingly diagnosed in young people aged 20 to 29 years. Scientists have conducted research that made it possible to find that an increase in the incidence of this type of cancer is caused by the wrong lifestyle and, in particular, obesity.
For example, in Denmark in recent years, a significant annual increase in cases of rectum cancer at 18.1%has been recorded. Similar trends can be observed in other countries, such as the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.
Experts from the International Cancer Agency in Lyon (France) emphasized that, despite the fact that the incidence of cancer and rectum in adults under 50 years of age remains lower than that of the elderly, the identification of this problem among young people is serious. They came to the conclusion that national programs dedicated to healthy lifestyles, including proper nutrition and physical activity, can be the most effective way of combating this problem.
Currently, the cancer of the colon and rectum ranks third among the most common cancer, and in 2018 the astronomical number of cases of the disease, namely 18 million, was diagnosed. This emphasizes the need for more information about risks and prevention of this disease, especially among young people.
