NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – A new study warns against the reuse of already fried oil as it increases the growth and spread of breast cancer cells. This applies to all types of oils, including high temperature tolerances.

The study, conducted at the University of Illinois on breast cancer samples, showed that recycled cooking oil promotes the transformation of breast cancer cells into ferocious species and increases their spread.

According to the study published in the Journal of Cancer Research Research, recycled cooking oil helps increase the growth of lung cancer, but the growth of breast cancer due to oil reuse is twice as important as other types of tumors.
