This Kitchen POISON Causes Cancer

Non-stick pans were supposed to be something straight out of the future.
In fact, the coating used on the pans was developed for NASA.
But these pans have a VERY dark side, too… and I’ve been telling people for years not to use them.
And now there is another good reason to toss your non-stick pans right in the trash.
Have you noticed that your non-stick pans change over time?
When you buy them, they are perfectly smooth. But over time (even if you use only plastic utensils) they get pits and craters.
Where do you think that surface goes?
I have the answer: Mostly in your food.
The chemicals used in frying pans are called perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and have been linked to cancer, hormonal changes, immune dysfunction, and more.
The Department of Nutrition at Harvard University recently published a study that found that PFAS have been found to interfere with the regulation of body weight and contribute to our obesity epidemic. No one needs that!
The study found that PFAS act like obesogenes–chemicals which increase body weight by storing fat.
People who were tested and found to have high levels of PFAS in their blood were also shown to have slower metabolisms.
So if you get lucky, they’ll only make you fat… if you get UNLUCKY, they could give you cancer.
I’ve always suggested that people use cast iron cook wear. It takes a while to learn how to care for these pots and pans, but they are much safer.
However, PFAS have another tricky way of getting in: your water.
PFAS is regularly found in tap water. So, for added protection, I suggest a filter on any taps that you use for drinking or cooking water.
Health and Happiness,
