If you're a man and you like to indulge in pan fried meat, a recent study suggests you may have to rethink your cooking habits starting TODAY. Read on to discover why…
A recent study from the University of Southern California and the
Cancer Prevention Institute of California has found that frequently indulging in pan-fried red meat could raise your risk of prostate
cancer significantly.
The link between pan-fried meats and prostate cancer
In the study, researchers found that men who ate more than 1.5 servings of pan-fried red meat a week had a 30% higher risk of advanced
prostate cancer.
Eating more than 2.5 servings a week led to a 40% higher risk of prostate
cancer!
The biggest offenders were hamburgers. They were linked to a greater risk of
cancer.
What’s the reason behind the rise in prostate cancer risk?
According to
Nutrition & Healing, researchers think the raised risk is a result of carcinogen accumulation that comes with cooking meat at high temperatures.
They found that men who ate mostly baked poultry had a lower risk of advanced prostate cancer. However, pan-frying poultry also increased risk for the disease.
So if you’re looking to prevent prostate cancer, take a look at how often you’re indulging in pan-fried meats. It’s not worth the risk of prostate cancer.
