Why cooking meat in a microwave reduces the risk of cancer?

The WHO’s International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified one HCA as a substance that may cause cancer in humans and contains genotoxicity. Nine HCAs have also been classified as a substance that may cause cancer in humans. Meat cooked at 100 degrees Celsius or below for a short time will only produce trace amounts of HCAs. Therefore, cooking food using microwaves or boiling water will produce less HCAs.

One study found that microwaving chicken legs reduced the formation of certain HCAs compared with frying them. Cooking meat in a microwave before grilling can greatly reduce the formation of HCAs.

Another study found that when beef patties were cooked under the same conditions, the content of several selected HCAs contained in beef patties pre-treated by microwave was reduced by 3 to 9 times compared with that without microwave treatment.
