In my book on cancer as a metabolic disease, I looked at a lot of these so-called carcinogens. When you treat tissue with carcinogens, the mitochondria in the cell become fluorescent and bio-luminous. This tells us that the carcinogens are inside the mitochondria and they're causing damage. You can't get cancer if your mitochondria remain healthy. So the carcinogens damaging mitochondria forced that cell now to switch to a fermentation mechanism over time; this is how we induce some of the brain tumors in mice.
