Roast meat in a very high temperature, can trigger prostate cancer risk in rats. In the report of the American Association for Cancer Research confirmed the relationship eating meat and prostate cancer.
This research is consistent with other studies that say to cook the meat with a high temperature, such as barbecue meats can cause cancer.
Component called PhIP formed when meat is cooked with a very high temperature, explained Dr. Angelo De Marzo and colleagues from Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. These components proved to trigger the growth of prostate cancer in mice.
"We're still stuck with a potential relationship between eating cooked meat in the diet and cancer in rats," said De Marzo in a statement.
"In humans, the biggest problem is difficult to determine how much PhIP we consume, because the amount varies greatly depending on cooking conditions."
For this study Yatsutomo Nakai and other team members of De Marzo mixed PhIP into food that will be given to rats for eight weeks, then study the prostate, colon and their spleen. In that study they found a genetic mutation in each organ of rats after four weeks
