It turned out that they all loved well-done in a frying pan or grilled meats, burgers, liver and certain processed meat products. Subsequently, researchers have seen that too much time on cooking at high temperatures and is the root of the problems.

California scientists are convinced that this was due to non-separation of the most deadly forms of the disease from others and ignoring the ways of cooking meat at high temperatures. Overcooked meat induces prostate cancer cells to grow more rapidly as scientists have found.
