I need to ask you something that might surprise you: When was the last time you actually looked at what your cookware is made of?
You might be focusing on buying organic food and filtering your water, but what we cook our food in is just as important.
Most conventional cookware contains hidden dangers that manufacturers don't want you to know about...
From non-stick coatings that release toxic fumes to aluminum that can leach into your food.
That's why I created this simple breakdown for you below to help get you get the toxins out of your cookware.
The Big 5 Toxic Materials in Your Cookware:
1. PFAS & PTFE (a.k.a. Teflon and “Forever Chemicals”)
Found in most non-stick cookware
Releases toxic fumes above 500 degrees F
Linked to cancer, liver damage, and immune problems
Red flags: Any pan marketed as “non-stick” or “easy release”
2. Aluminum
Leaches into acidic foods like tomatoes
Linked to neurological issues and Alzheimer's
Builds up in the body over time
Red flags: Lightweight, silvery pans that dent easily
3. Unlined Copper
Copper toxicity can cause nausea and liver damage
Dangerous for those with Wilson’s disease
Red flags: Bright copper interior (lined copper is safer)
4. Lead Glazes (especially in Ceramics)
Found in vintage or imported ceramic cookware
Dangerous for children and pregnant women
Lead poisoning affects brain development
Red flags: Brightly colored glazes, vintage pieces, imported ceramics
5. Cadmium - Hidden in Ceramic Glazes and Cheap Metal Cookware
Carcinogenic with long-term exposure
Could cause kidney damage, bone disease
Red flags: Metallic taste in food, discolored cookware
