More and more young people developing cancer.
The rise in colon cancers among younger adults has been gaining particular attention. According to the U.S. National
Institute, the incidence of that disease among Americans younger than 50 has more than doubled since the 1990s — in sharp contrast to a decrease among people older than 65.. It's now age 45 for people at average risk of the disease. Dr. Benjamin Weinberg, an associate professor at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C., is studying the potential role of the gut microbiome in earlier-onset colon, Weinberg said it suggests that something in the immune system response to early tumors has gone awry.
There is some evidence, he said, that greater diversity in the gut microbiome may support that immune response.
