An early release of findings from an Australian study published in medRxiv this week showed the incidence of bowel cancer is up to three times higher among Australians born in the 1990s compared with the 1950s cohort.
Bowel cancer is now the leading cause of death in people aged 25 to 44 in Australia.
Might want to figure out what major dietary changes happened in the country starting in the 1990s.
Mass consumption of “low fat” (high sugar) processed food like products?

Obesity is a major predictor of colorectal cancer, which has become more common since the 1990s. Physical exercise and fibre intake may also be independently associated with lower rates of colorectal cancer as well.
Its a relative measurement.
The bowel cancer rate has fallen in over 65s because of the increase in screening.
I don’t think your interpretation is correct. I think that comparison was of data for the two cohorts when they were the same age.
More microplastics?
Processed meats?
I feel like it’s something use to make food, like, idk, cyclodextrins or something.
Yeah ham when I grew up was the processed stuff formed into logs. Devon? Lovely on a sandwich with tomato sauce but I have no idea what was in it!
