    In hot pot soup, the content of amino acids and amines is relatively high, they may synthesize carcinogens such as nitrosamines with nitrite under heating conditions. Although there is no measurement data for the nitrosamine content in the soup, its existence is still worrying. If you often eat such shabu-shabu, you cannot rule out the risk of promoting digestive tract cancer, so it is still better to drink less hot pot soup.
