Greetings folks, I just posted a new piece on my blog titled To Cook or Not to Cook: The Question of Heterocyclic Amines (http://www.howericlives.com/question-of-heterocyclic-amines/). As one might surmise, it's a brief post that summarizes some of the literature on the toxic effects of heterocyclic amines and how they're formed in meat exposed to high temperatures during cooking, particularly grilling, broiling and frying.
My goal is to do a series of posts on heat-created toxins in foods, starting with this post on HCAs, then with a post on acrylamides that I hope to finish by next Monday. If anyone has recent (1990-present) references for studies on heat-created toxins, particularly that focus on epidemiological evidence linking them to particular diseases or recent literature reviews that are comprehensive, I'd love to see them. I'm doing a fair amount of research too, of course.
I'll post future pieces on the topic of heat-created toxins here too, probably in their own threads.

Thanks for the links Phil. I'll definitely do a post on AGEs, but wanted to do the other main heat created toxins first. While doing research just on HCAs, I felt like there was enough material to write a short book on. It's amazing to me how much research has been done, yet how little this issue is covered by the media...

Yeah, it's no surprise since there's little profit in it. The confirmation bias regarding rawness and cooking in even the so-called Paleo community is appalling.

Hah! You can say that about 65 times. I linked to my post in a thread on Mark's Daily Apple (http://www.marksdailyapple.com/forum/thread110216.html), and while a few people seem to be genuinely interested most are pretty dismissive.

Dr. Gerhauser on YT has a video on AGE's and amines. Highly recommended (They're ad-free too, which is nice)

He's got hundreds of other great videos as well. He seems to be a really great and smart guy; he opposes the mainstream medical system, knowing that it only poisons us.
