How to eat barbecue? First of all, don't make barbecue a mainstream food. Secondly, if you eat barbecue, add some ketchup, it will reduce the harm of barbecue food to the minimum.

In recent years, barbecue has become more and more popular and become a popular food. However, when people taste the delicious barbecue, they will inevitably worry about its safety. The results showed that the carcinogens heterocyclic amine and benzopyrene were easy to be produced in barbecue food after high temperature roasting. In particular, benzopyrene has been proved to cause mutation, deformity or canceration in humans or animals.

Firstly, lycopene in tomato paste has good anti-cancer effect and antioxidant activity. Many epidemiological studies have shown that lycopene can prevent some types of cancer, such as prostate cancer and gastrointestinal cancer. In vitro and in vivo studies of cancer cell culture also support this conclusion. Secondly, tomato paste contains a certain amount of vitamin C, which can hinder the formation of certain carcinogens. For example, nitrosamines, which can lead to gastric cancer, are formed by the combination of nitrite and amines, and the presence of vitamin C will block the synthesis of the two, thus reducing the number of carcinogens. Thirdly, the application of ketchup during barbecue can reduce the temperature of barbecue. During the barbecue, ketchup absorbs heat first to protect the meat in the middle from sudden warming.

In addition, tomato paste also contains a certain amount of dietary fiber. Although this nutrient is not digested and absorbed by human body, it can slow down the absorption rate of carcinogens and reduce the absorption amount of carcinogens. Therefore, it can also reduce the harm of barbecue food to the body. In a word, eat barbecue, don't forget to spread more ketchup!
