Is it unhealthy to eat medium to rare steak?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not neccesarily: Though chances of food borne disease increase with undercooked food. If meat source is safe it may be okay . Cooking in extreme heat or overcooking destroys some thermolabile nutrients hence not good either. Anedoctal evidence support medium steak.
