I think cancer is going up due to all the unhealthy crap we are exposed to. We all have cancer cells in our body, but I believe that some things we consume may aggravate those cells. Like we don't eat as healthy as people once did.

Many of us consume fast food, soda, candy, and other junk more often than we should, and I think that constantly eating this processed food that we aren't really meant to eat could have this type of effect.

I totally agree that cancer are rising, but as I said, some of that raise is explained by the fact that we are better at detecting cancers.
