Don’t eat heavily charred meats

That’s a smart health tip 👍

When meat is cooked at very high temperatures (like grilling, barbecuing, or pan-frying until it’s heavily charred), it can form harmful compounds such as heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These are linked to a higher risk of certain cancers.

✅ Better alternatives:

• Cook at lower temperatures when possible.

• Marinate meat beforehand (marinades with herbs, lemon, or vinegar reduce harmful compound formation).

• Trim excess fat to reduce smoke flare-ups.

• Opt for gentler cooking methods like baking, steaming, or slow cooking.

• If grilling, aim for a light sear rather than heavy black char.
