What causes cancer? Even dogs and cats get cancer. My doctor told me some people are just prone to cancer.
I think it’s common knowledge that anything browned, burnt or scorched is carcinogenic. There are certain food additives that give me inflammation, such as modified food starch, caramel color and dextrose. Modified food starch is starch (wheat, corn, etc.) that is treated with acid, which burns it to make it more shelf-stable. Caramel is made from scorched milk and sugar. Dextrose is a type of sugar added to baked goods to enhance browning.
I think the Food and Drug Administration should look into this.
