Why does cancer get more common towards northern Europe?

[Odelia]

And it gets least common as one moves south towards the Mediterranean and MENA. Also, most people that tend to be diagnosed with cancer are WASP descent. Why is cancer rarer in Asia and Africa??? Anybody noticed this weird shit?

[ANXIETY (ADEPT)]

Most likely lifestyle choices.

Older population I would guess. Having constant checkups also helps. If you set out to look for something you’re sure to find it.

It's not weird at all. It is already known the main source of cancer is caused by the kind of food you eat. Of course the big corporations behind it won't let the average Joe find out.

Read something years ago that some types of cancers might be aligned with a lack of sun. Also is some of these poorer asian and african countries some people never see a doctor let along get a cancer diagnosis. If you don't have cash no Doctor for you.

My take: worst diets, based on meat(mainly red meat) and dairy.

Lotta people who were never skinny now are and can't regain any weight may have some form of cancer, which, after a few years elapse, they discover too late, or never if they shun doctors, but both in either case die after the body has devoured enough muscle tissue, the fat being long gone.

It's also the food your food ate. And you forgot the most dangerous one: Sugar. Also, I'd advise anyone to cut back on sodas.

Consuming lots of acrylamide for one.

I once read the reason why Denmark had high cancer rates was because there are a lot of smokers, and a lot of alcohol consumption.
