Did You Know ?

Have you heard? That in a laboratory experiment undertaken
by a team of scientist of the University of Glasgow, they found
out that vitamin C (ascorbic acid) mopped up potential cancer-
causing compounds, when mix up with food and stomach acid.

But you knew what happened when Fat was added? When the
team of scientist added Fat, it reacted to create nitrosating
species. Nitrosating species, are able to convert a range of
other stomach chemicals into potential cancer-causing agents
called N-nitrosocompounds.

Want a bite of my crispy chicharon or pork rind ?
