Study: Grilled meats can raise blood pressure

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- From the Poconos to the shore, people all over our area will be firing up the grills this Memorial Day weekend - but go easy on the grilled meats.

Past research shows that when meat is cooked to the charred point, chemicals call HAA's form and those are bad for the arteries.
