Why it seems that cancer is so much prevalent nowadays than in the old ages? Is that due to our habits?
In: Biology
the biggest thing, by far, is just that we have better diagnostic tools nowadays. 100 years ago if an old person died, that was just what happened. They did not necessarily even try to figure out the what the exact cause was. and unless the cancer was something particularly obvious causing huge growth visible outside of the body, they probably would never come anywhere near to any sort of diagnosis.
