    For a non meme answer. my bet would be on endocrine disruption of the thyroid, by pollutants.
    Along with a change in feeding habits in former third world population (sudden access to an abundance of sugar when you’re not genetically ready for it).
    And maybe compound it with unhealthy lifestyles (increasing sedentary lifestyles).
