Probably because the longer you're alive the longer you're exposed to processed foods and all sorts of other cancer causing agents. Isolated tribes contain some of the healthiest people even compared to modern civilized societies with healthcare and all that.

You can stop pointing to "processed foods" and simply refer to refined sugar and corn syrup.

I don't believe you. Cancer kills people of all ages, but that doesn't equate to all people will get cancer at some age. Heart disease is still the #1 cause of death in the US. And the increase in Alzheimer's Disease, which is also not cancer, is the biggest concern for gerontologists.

Aging is directly associated with telomere length. You can do certain yoga exercises, use proper nutrition, and use of cannabis will help lengthen telomeres and literally reverse aging.
