Scientists have found that two-thirds of cancers of various types can be produced as a result of random mutations and not heredity or bad habits
In general, they attributed 65 percent of cancer cases in the random mutations in genes that can promote cancer growth.
"Therefore, we should pay more research and resources on finding ways to detect these cancers at an early, curable stages," said scientists.

Smoking tobacco is still a leading cause of many cancers. Around 85% of lung cancers could be avoided if tobacco was not used.

Yeah, it is all random, just bad luck. And climate change is a hoax; and dinosaurs walked around the pyramids. What intellectually bankrupt nonsense.

Why do they think the mutations are random? If they were random, we would not see some populations with really low rates of cancer. They would have just as much of these "random" cancers as any other human populations. I think it is environmental toxins. It only makes sense because cancer has increased along with increased environmental toxins, and I think above the 35% these researchers attribute to environmental causes. I would like to know who funded the study.
