Hot Dogs Cause Cancer?
August 15, 2006
How often do you eat hot dogs? Even if you don't eat the heavily processed meat that often, you may want to think twice before enjoying your next hot dog.
It is no surprise that hot dogs are not a healthy food choice, but how unhealthy are they? A recent study conducted by chemists at the University of Nebraska has shed light on how unhealthy hot dogs really are. Hot dogs have been found to contain several variations of chemical compounds that are believed to cause DNA mutations which may increase one's risk of developing cancer.
