Barbecue is bad for your health: true or false?
True and false. So that the barbecue is not dangerous for your health, certain rules must be respected. You must take care that the food does not become impregnated with hydrocarbons from combustion and smoke: the food must not be overcooked and the grill must be at least 10 cm from the embers. By choosing lean foods, you will prevent fat from falling onto the embers and generating hydrocarbons. It is also advisable to favor NF certified charcoal to avoid pollutants. To limit exposure to hydrocarbons which could be carcinogenic, nutritionists recommend not having more than two barbecues per week.
