I would have to say it is definitely because of the earth's polution. The air isn't as clean as it once was, thus leading to much more toxicities in our bodies. PLUS, people are getting young and younger by the geneartion of things that are done. Girls are getting their periods WAY earlier than they used to 20 years ago. People are doing drugs at an average age of 11!!! 11! People have sex younger, people smoke cigarettes younger. Everything is advancing and we are slowly killing ourselves. I guess you could say it is apart of the "process" of the degeneration of earth.

Because most people wait until they have symptoms to go to the doctor (Reactive) instead of taking supplements, eating and excercising properly and taking care of free radicals in the body (which can cause inflammation) leading eventually to cancer and other diseases. (Proactive)
