Summary

A global study reveals a rising trend of bowel cancer diagnoses among adults under 50, with the highest annual increases in countries like New Zealand, Chile, Puerto Rico, and England.

Experts suggest potential causes include junk food consumption, physical inactivity, and obesity.

While rates are still low compared to older populations, the trend is concerning. Young women in several countries experienced faster increases than men.

Researchers emphasize the need for innovative prevention strategies and increased awareness of early symptoms to address this global health issue.
