Compared by boiling, food that is cooked by baking can increase the risk of cancer up to two times, although food is well cooked. The scientists found that meat that is baked or fried undergo carcinogenic mutations on its surface.
A study conducted by the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, tested the mice for experiments that are expected to reflect similar conditions in humans. They found that humans have certain enzymes called sulfotransferases (sult) in some parts of their bodies. In mice, this enzyme is exists only in the liver.
Sult enzyme serves to convert some of the ingredients in foods that are not harmful to the body. In addition, this enzyme also has the ability to change the content of the food to be carcinogenic or cancer causing.
"We want to examine the development of colon tumors in mice which often consumed baked and fried foods, and compare it with the development of tumors in normal mice that is fed the same contaminated food," said the scientists.

The result shows that scientists find colon tumors increased from 31 to 80 percent in mice who ate a baked meat, just like humans. In addition, the scientists also noted that the mice is not a perfect experiment to illustrate the health risks of human colon via the consumption of contaminated food. But it's good if we don't consume baked foods too often, because it can trigger cancer risk.
