Whatever the cooking material we use, health hazards are greatly reduced these days because many of them are coated with the non-stick plastic called Teflon™. Although they have their own downsides too because they have been linked to complications especially at high temperature and when scratched, non-stick coating in frying and cooking pots is very important since we take in Aluminium and Iron from various other sources we cannot control on our own – we have to reduce them from the sources that we have control over.
In the form of salts, aluminium has properties that make it a versatile and useful additive. Aluminium sulphate is added to our water to improve clarity. All foods that need raising agents or additives, such as cakes and biscuits, contain aluminium. Children’s sweets contain aluminium-enhanced food colouring. It is in tea, cocoa and malt drinks, in some wines and fizzy drinks and in most processed foods. It is in cosmetics, sunscreens and antiperspirants, as well as being used as a buffering agent in medications like aspirin and antacids. It is even used in vaccines.
We get sufficient iron from eating iron-rich foods like meats, beans, and spinach, so we should try to avoid getting too much from our cookware added to that. They can cause overloading of iron into the body. FINALLY, go to the last page to see the video that guides you on choosing cooking pots.
316TitanumL is the highest grade of stainless that does not react with the body because it is inert. So when we cook with it,it does not react with acid n enzymes in our food,so it keeps d purity n flavour in our food n preserves the nutrient in the food that the body needs to help buid our immune system n keep us healthy.
Sir, from your last point, are you suggesting that non-stick cookware is the preferred one to use for cooking?
The best form of cookware you can use as Ada has said is Titanium 316Ti. This is what I do for a living aside other things. We show people free presentations on how to eat healthy turning your food to medicine instead of eating your medicine as food.
