This is from the BBC Web Site and the University of Texas http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8629358.stm
"Eating lots of meat, especially if it is overcooked, increases the risk of bladder cancer, say experts.
Frying, grilling and barbecuing until meat is charred can form cancer-causing chemicals, research shows.
In a study, people whose diets included well-done meats were over twice as likely to develop bladder cancer than those who preferred meats rare.
The research findings, based on over 1,700, people were presented at a US cancer research conference.
The University of Texas investigators found the risk was highest for those who ate well-done red meat such as steaks, pork chops and bacon."
Something more to think about then.
