love the new explosions . <| sep |> That ' s about to even out in early december though . I ' d say that at that point it ' s more on the software side to win the race . <| sep |> There are two parts to your question . First part is about the statistic itself . You must understand that in India preemptive healthcare checks are not very common . Most people live in villages and small towns where a cancer diagnosis might be difficult to come by and that might result in people dying without a precise known cause , which could be cancer . As for your second part . An average Indian , being not so rich , generally ends up eating stuff that the rich and affluent spend a lot of money on in a country like USA ! That might sound surprising but consider this Most Indians by vegetables from the local market . They eat food that is unprocessed roti , vegetable , dal and rice They cannot afford dessert on daily basis which controls refined sugar Packaged food that comes in fancy colored packing is more expensive than freshly prepared stuff ! !!! Refrigeration is not wide spread so they eat chickenmeatfish which has been freshly butchered Indians live a hard life physically speaking . Less access to automobiles means lot of walking . Even public transports are crowded so one ends us standing in it . I am sure that many more points but this is what I could think of right now .
