Just a thought about this: in youth we tend more “anabolic” and we know that certain cancers e.g ovarian and breast tend to be more virulent in young people than in older people. So may-be there is some truth to the idea that as we age, and become more “catabolic” – bone turnover and remodeling slows, muscle growth slows or reverses, etc., that cancer which is a disease of heightened (abnormal) growth might also move more slowly if it starts at all?
