Most of those cancers have shown up in patients life's around 60's and 70's, yet researchers say that they found most significant increases in there early ages of life. Sadly, overall cancer has been seen to decrease in men and increase in women. Studies also show that the increase in obesity has rose in groups of individuals born in recent years. The main cause of this is obviously the lack of exercise and poor diet though, there are many people that are facing that problem in the U.S
