    The document discusses cooking meat and its effects on health. It notes that grilling or frying meat at high temperatures creates harmful chemicals like HCAs and PAHs that have been linked to cancer. Specifically, HCAs form when meat is cooked at high temperatures, as amino acids, sugars, and creatine react, while PAHs form when fat and juices from meat cooked over an open flame drip onto the fire and cause smoke. The document suggests that changing the way meat is cooked, especially if a lot is consumed, may increase chances of staying healthy.

    RARE, MEDIUM OR WELL DONE ?

    Nowadays the media
    is full of advice about
    what we should and
    shouldn´t eat to have
    a healthy diet.Few
    people manage to
    stick to the perfect
    diet, of course, but
    now it seems we can
    increase our chances
    of staying healthy just
    by changing the way
    we cook our food
    ,especially if we eat
    a lot of meat.
    The bad news for barbacue fans is that grilling
    meat over an open flame creates harmful
    chemicals known as HCAs* and PAHs* that
    have been linked to cancer , as does frying
    meat at tremperatures above 300 F .
    HCAs form when amino acids , sugars , and
    creatine (a protein found in meat) react at hight
    temperaturas.
    PAHs form when fat and juices from meat grilled
    directly over an open fire drip onto the fire ,
    causing smoke.
    .
    THANKS
