I reckon that there are many more causes of cancer that have been introduced into the average household, for example:- Cling film produced a scare a few years ago, Air Fresheners, Exhaust Fumes, Insect Sprays, Garden Fertilisers, Weedkillers and Insect Sprays, Household Cleaning Agents, Washing Powders, Fabric Conditioners, AntiPerspirants that prevent or impede normal bodily functions, Soaps and Shower Gels, many of these can be absorbed through the skin or taken in through the nose and mouth while breathing, and ingestion.
I also believe that hereditary factors play a major role in the transmission of cancer.
Previous generations were exposed to many more chemicals and toxins and things that were deemed safe and later were proved not to be so consequently they were not not provided with the appropriate safety equipment. Having contracted the disease it would then be passed down through the generations to the present day, after which the cause had long since been removed but we still search.....Especially the Mail Online!

One should be able to assume things on sale are safe for us.
