Avoiding cheese and bacon! 😱

Expand full comment

Smoked and charred meats and cheeses, including bacon, contribute to colon, breast and prostate cancer risk.

I believe it is the nitrosamines formed by nitrates/nitrites in bacon. If you take a good vitamin C supplement it prevents formation of the bad compounds. For charred meats, carnosine and/or carnitine offer a great deal of protection.

Or avoid the high risk chemical compounds and eat something else.
