Guest guest Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Brain Tumor Rates Rising in Europe, US FLORENCE (Reuters Health) - The number of brain tumor cases in the US and Europe has increased by up to 40% in the past 20 years, according to data to be released at a medical conference this week. The incidence rate for brain tumors is increasing among people of all ages, but males between 20 and 40 years old are the most affected, according to Dr. Alba Brandes, an oncologist at the Azienda-Ospedale in Padua. ------ Consider this: The increase is among young, active people, not the elderly with weak immune systems. Cell phone use has incresed during the last 20 years in this group and may very well be the active causative factor. --------- get your free sample copy of The Holistic Dental Digest PLUS - by replying to jmittelman with your PO Box or street address.
