Australians aged in their 30s and 40s are experiencing unprecedented and in some cases world-leading rates of 10 different types of cancer — and scientists are desperate to understand why.
Could be like France where the rise in cancers (especially pancreatic ones) is linked to cadmium in the plants (french farmers currently use phosphates from Moroccan mines that are very high on cadmium, poisoning the plant based food that is eaten there, cereals and veggies alike). The rest of the EU uses stricter heavy metals tolerances and uses phosphates produced in Europe or China, that have way lower cadmium levels.
Doctors unions have recently pulled the alarm and recommend the general public to only eat organic, as phosphates are not allowed.
