New research confirms there is a rising tide of adults under the age of 50 developing cancers of the colon and rectum in seven countries, including Canada.

Researchers with the World Health Organization examined the rates of colorectal cancers among 143 million people in seven high-income countries and found the presence of the diseases has declined overall in the past 10 years, but has increased dramatically among those under the age of 50.

“I think were definitely surprised just because of my age, and I didn’t have any family history,” she told CTV News. “They were definitely shocked and I was more shocked.” Researchers speculate obesity, red meat consumption, smoking and physical activity could all be to blame for the increases in colorectal cancer among young people, but add further study is needed to confirm these assumptions. For Benson, having no real explanation is troubling.
