Why does eating food cooked at high temperatures increase the risk of cancer? Stanford scientists discover a surprising new reason why

Fire damage to DNA

A groundbreaking study by Stanford scientists suggests that consuming foods cooked at high temperatures, such as red meat and fried foods, can lead to DNA damage and increased cancer risk due to the absorption of heat-damaged DNA from these foods. While this finding is preliminary and seen primarily in lab-grown cells and mice, it highlights … Read more
