I think summer is the season for barbecues, but my friends advised me to eat less, saying that barbecues cause cancer. Is this really the case?

    Barbecuing does have the possibility of carcinogenicity. The nucleic acid in meat is decomposed by heating with most amino acids in the Maillard reaction. It is known that gene mutations are produced. These gene mutations may cause cancer. In addition, in the barbecue environment There are also some substances that cause cancer, such as 3,4-benzene ratio, into the human body through the skin, respiratory tract, digestive tract and other pathways to induce cancer.
