The anticipated impact of early-onset cancer at MIHealth Summit – FasterCures

FasterCures shared a post on LinkedIn:

“In 2024, 2 million Americans will face a cancer diagnosis, with a startling rise in early-onset cancers among adults under 45. Globally, these cases could surge by 31% by 2030. This trend affects all sexes and cancer types, yet the causes remain unclear. Experts suggest that factors like sedentary lifestyles, smoking, and highly processed diets may play a role.

This compelling MIHealth Summit panel explores the anticipated impact of early-onset cancer and how key changes in behavior and environmental factors may reduce risk or slow the concerning rise in cancers in younger adults. Watch the recording here.
