just now (367+ words) Research out of Harvard offers a clue as to why colorectal cancer rates are rising in younger adults. Right now, colorectal cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in U.S., according to the American Cancer Society (ACS). While this type of cancer has traditionally affected older adults, those rates have declined over the past several decades for people 65 and older and the rates in people under the age of 50 have risen. In fact, individuals who were born in the 1990s are two times as likely to develop colorectal cancer than people born in the 1950s, the American College of Surgeons says. As a result of this concerning trend, in 2018, the ACS lowered its recommended age to start screening for colorectal cancer from age 50 to age 45. Ultra-processed foods may be a contributor to chronic inflammation, metabolic syndrome (which includes diabetes), and…...

just now (418+ words) Sir David Suchet has said that playing an oil company shareholder in a short film was "really terrific" and "so different from anything I've ever done".

just now (808+ words) KUALA LUMPUR: Behind every success is a great support system, especially if someone is going through the rigorous process of earning a PhD. More so if they do not have the same capabilities as everyone else. Dr Noorilham Ismail, 35, who is visually impaired, said it was thanks to the help he got that he had managed to complete his PhD.

just now (1899+ words) Is it possible to live comfortably in retirement on Social Security income alone? Alden and Dena Swartz draw nearly $4,000 a month from Social Security, the government program designed to support Americans in retirement. And they are struggling. Gail Randle and her partner, Mike DellaVolpe, collect only $2,400 a month in Social Security benefits: Not quite $30,000 a year. And they are doing all right. "We are frugal people," said Randle, 73. "Almost everything in our house is recycled. Used, you know? Thrifted. But it looks nice. Everything works." Social Security was never intended to fund the full cost of retirement. On average, the benefit covers about 40% of a worker's preretirement earnings. And that figure could drop: Social Security will face a shortfall by 2035, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Most Americans think you need at least $1 million in the bank, on top of…...
