00:00Avoid burnt food as it can trigger cancer. Here's the explanation.
00:08Foods that are processed at high temperatures, such as grilled, baked, or fried
00:12can produce a dangerous chemical compound called acrylamide.
00:16Acrylamide is classified as a carcinogen or a substance that can cause cancer.
00:20The longer and higher the temperature at which food is cooked, the more acrylamide is formed.
00:25Foods that are dark brown or black in color, such as overcooked French fries,
00:28Grilled meat or burnt toast contains higher levels of acrylamide.
00:32Some ways to reduce the risk of cancer in burnt food,
00:35namely by limiting the consumption of burnt food or processing food at a lower temperature.
00:39When cooking, it is recommended to turn the food frequently so that no side burns.
00:43If there are any burnt sides or parts, cut off the burnt parts before eating.
00:48Try to choose cooking methods that don't produce a lot of acrylamide,
00:52such as boiling, steaming, or stir-frying.
00:54Apart from coming from burnt food, the risk of cancer is also influenced by many factors,
00:58such as lifestyle, family history, and environmental factors.
