Introduction
• Meat intake associated with cancer (Norat and Riboli 2001; Norat et al. 2002)
• Biological mechanism not known
• Epidemiological studies of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and heterocyclic amines (HCA) and cancer suggestive but inconsistent
• Inconsistencies may be due to measurement error (Butler et al. 2003; Cantwell et al. 2004)
• Little known about how standard method compares to other methods, particularly biological monitoring (Sinha et al. 2001; Butler et al. 2003; Sinha et al. 2005; Gunter et al 2005; Cross et al. 2005, 2006; Li et al. 2007)

Objective
To evaluate dietary exposure to the HCA 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenyl-imidazo-[4,5b]pyridine (PhIP) and the PAHs pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) using three approaches:
(1) Meat-specific food frequency questionnaire (FFQ)combined with a food carcinogen database called CHARRED developed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI)
(2) NCI meat-specific diet diaries and CHARRED database
(3) Repeated biological monitoring of HCA and PAH urinary excretion products

MethodsPopulation: 54 controls from a colorectal adenoma case-control study. Exclusion criteria: smoker or live with smoker, occupational exposure to PAH
FFQ Collection and Analysis: FFQ collected at 2 time points over an approximate 1-year period. Combined with NCI food carcinogen CHARRED database to estimate exposure to PhIP and BaP.
Diet Diary Collection and Analysis: Diet diaries collected at 3 time points over an approximate 1-year period. Combined with CHARRED database to estimate exposure to PhIP and BaP.
Urine Collection and Analysis: Overnight voids collected at 3 time points concurrent with diet diaries. Urine analyzed for PhIP and its conjugates and 1-hydroxypyrene-glucuronide (1-OHPG). Urinary cotinine assessed to confirm non-smoking status.

Conclusions• Among the three approaches for assessing dietary HCA exposure, a
correlation was only observed between the diary-database and urinary PhIP, when the analysis was restricted to values above zero or the detection limit (Spearman r=0.81, p<0.001).
• Lack of correlation may be due to small number of sampling days or short-comings of the FFQ and CHARRED database.
• For PAHs, the between-method correlation was strongest for BaP intake estimated from the diary-database and urinary 1-OHPG, after excluding participants with evidence of tobacco smoke exposure (elevated urinary cotinine) (Spearman r=0.59, p<0.05).
• Dietary BaP exposure estimated from the FFQ-database was also statistically significantly correlated with urinary 1-OHPG (Spearman r = 0.39, p<0.05).
• Further examination of discrepancies between the different methods may provide insight into ways to improve the dietary exposure assessment of PAH and HCA.

Significance for Public Health and Sustainability
• 35% of all cancer deaths in the U.S. are potentially avoidable through dietary changes (Doll and Peto 1981, Willett 1995)
• Improved exposure assessment methods could be applied in future epidemiological and risk studies to better understand the diet-disease link
• The growing awareness that a diet high in meat is deleterious to one’s health may be a powerful motivator for change, leading the way to decreased meat consumption
• Decreased consumption could lead to decreased production, guiding us toward a more livable future
