    In Maillard reaction, nucleic acids in meat and most amino acids produce genetic mutations when they are decomposed by heating. These genetic mutations may cause cancer. In addition, in the barbecue environment, some carcinogens will enter the body through the skin, respiratory tract, digestive tract and other pathways to induce cancer. Barbecue suggests eating as little as possible.
