7 Cancer incidence rising in younger UK adults despite improved lifestyle factors

A major study found that 16 of 22 cancer types rose significantly in younger women aged 20–49 between 2001 and 2019, and 11 of 21 cancers in younger men—a trend that persists despite improvements in smoking, diet, and other established risk factors. Researchers identified obesity as a partial but insufficient explanation, pointing to potential roles for microbiome changes and early-life exposures.
