Exposure assessment

• Wide range of exposure depending on diet.

  • Generally diets high in certain types of food (fries, chips, etc.) will have higher acrylamide intakes than diets of equivalent caloric intake that are lower in those types of foods.
  • 100 calories of raw apple < acrylamide than 100 calories of "over baked" fries

• Does this level of acrylamide intake have an impact on health?
