The utensils we use for cooking can impact our health, as certain materials may leach metals or release toxic substances into food. Different cookware materials like non-stick, aluminum, stainless steel, copper, ceramic, and iron have varying effects on food and health. Factors such as pH of food, cooking duration, and age of utensils influence metal leaching. While some cookware materials pose potential health risks (e.g., non-stick may release toxic gases at high temperatures, aluminum may contribute to neurological issues), others, like stainless steel are generally safe. To safeguard health, it is important to use appropriate cookware, avoid high-heat cooking, maintain utensils properly, and replace old cookware. Ultimately, being mindful of our cooking utensils is part of maintaining a healthy life.
