How to avoid cancer when eating grilled food

To enjoy grilled dishes with peace of mind, just keep in mind a few "tips" when cooking:

First of all, don't put the meat on the grill too early when it's still lit to avoid the smoke filling the charcoal before it catches fire. Place the meat on the grill when the charcoal is already hot, when the top of the charcoal is covered with a thin layer of white ash.

Keep a safe distance between the grill and the coals. The further the better, but not so far that the meat takes longer to cook.

Don't place the meat directly in the center of the fire, but move it to one side so that it still gets the heat but the fat when it falls doesn't hit the red hot coals.

Don't forget that the meat in the middle of the grill contains 50 times more carcinogens than the meat on the edge.

Instead of grilling directly over a fire, it is much better to line the area with a tile or stone cutting board. Do not choose an iron pan or cast iron grill because it will inadvertently contribute to the carcinogenic effects. If you want to wrap the meat, banana leaves or lolot leaves are always better than aluminum foil.

Do not grill smoked foods, such as smoked fish, sausages, etc., because the nitrite salt in these foods can easily turn into nitrosamine, a highly carcinogenic substance.

Finally, never enjoy grilled food without eating vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins A, C and E such as carrots, bell peppers, lettuce, and especially tomatoes. Lycopene, an antioxidant in tomato skin, is the nemesis of carcinogens in grilled meat smoke.

Most of the foods that are condemned as toxic and harmful to health are usually delicious. Grilled food is an example. You just need to change your grilling habits a little and use grilled food in the ways shared above, enough to live a healthy life without having to give up delicious food.
