The shock diagnosis of cancer is affecting more and more young people. In people under the age of 50, diagnoses increased by almost 80 percent. Micro- and nanoplastics are used as triggers. An Austrian research team is investigating what role it plays in the formation of metastases.
Princess Kate is suffering from cancer. At the age of 42. The date is still unknown, only “abdominal surgery” and “preventive chemotherapy” were made public. A shock diagnosis. Until now it has been seen as a symbol of exemplary living. Young, fit and healthy – and cancer as a disease of old age and people with multiple risk factors.
But now the news: According to a study from Washington University, young people can age faster as a result of a stressful, unhealthy lifestyle: with cells losing their ability to repair themselves. According to The Harvard Gazette, Kate is not alone. The headline reads: “Dramatic increase in cancer under 50s.” The American National Cancer Institute even speaks of a “cancer epidemic in boys”.
