WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A compound formed when meat is charred at high temperatures -- as in barbecue -- encourages the growth of prostate cancer in rats, researchers reported on Sunday.

Their study, presented at a meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research, may help explain the link between eating meat and a higher risk of prostate cancer.

It also fits in with other studies suggesting that cooking meat until it chars might cause cancer.

The compound, called PhIP, is formed when meat is cooked at very high temperatures, Dr. Angelo De Marzo and colleagues at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore reported.

It appears to both initiate and promote the growth of prostate cancer in rats, they said.

"We stumbled across a new potential interaction between ingestion of cooked meat in the diet and cancer in the rat," De Marzo said in a statement.

"For humans, the biggest problem is that it's extremely difficult to tell how much PhIP you've ingested, since different amounts are formed depending on cooking conditions."

For the study, Yatsutomo Nakai and other members of De Marzo's team mixed PhIP into food given to rats for up to eight weeks, then studied the animals' prostates, intestines and spleens. They found genetic mutations in all the organs after four weeks.

True BBQ is a low-heat, long, slow cook. Certainly less than 220 degrees.

Perhaps these uninitiated researchers meant to say "grilling".

We all die, I am going to die after a life that I have enjoyed, not worrying about BS like this.



WTF is wrong with these researchers wasting good grilled meat on rats.

If a man lives long enough he will eventually develope prostate cancer.

The prostate is the ultimate death timer.  If you manage to avoid dying from all other causes, your prostate will eventually become cancerous and kill you.

Welcome to life on earth, for what its worth.......

Most of the health nuts in my life have died due to things other than health...i.e. car accidents, etc
