    It’s a complex combo of medications taken during pregnancy, exposure to environmental chemicals, large quantities of highly processed food, and disruption of circadian rhythms.

        I’d lump that in with environmental chemicals.

      Probably also stress. Stress makes you susceptible to all kinds of illnesses and disease.

      We were the first generation to have it worse off than the one before us, coming of age in a time of housing and economic/job crisis, etc. And before that, we dealt with 9/11, endless war, and the dramatic ramping up of the class war.
