Changing the era has changed our lifestyle too. But adopting this modern lifestyle results in the many diseases to almost 98% of people in the world. You must be very familiar with a few of these diseases :

  • Thyroid
  • PCOD
  • PCOS
  • Liver Problem
  • Cancer
  • Hormonal Imbalance
  • Obesity
  • Weak Immunity
  • Diabetes
  • Heart Diseases

 

Here, I am telling you the 5 items you should immediately cut from your kitchen as this is the only cause for your lifestyle diseases mentioned above.

 

1.  Non-Stick Cookware:

Non-stick cookware is most commonly used for cooking. These cookwares are the most important factor and are very dangerous for the body as these are Teflon coating which is made of PTFF ( Polytetrafluoroethylene ).

On cooking high flame, these cookware produces mercury and cadmium which is also harmful to health.

 

Majorly affected area : 

Brain

Lungs

 

Solution :

Use cast Iron instead.

 

2.   Aluminum Foil :

When we wrap our food in the foil, our food absorbs maximum chemicals from the aluminum which cause many health issues. Even the most healthy food wrapped in the foil is not healthy at all.

According to WHO :

The maximum limit for aluminum consumption in the human body: 50gm

In one meal wrapped in the foil: 1-2gm

When the amount of aluminum increases in our body, then the body loses its ability to absorb zinc. Zinc is very important for sharp mind and bones mineral density.

 

Majorly affected area : 

Kidneys

Lungs

Low Immunity

 

 Solution :

 Cotton Cloth

 Butter Paper

 

3.   Aluminum Utensils: 

Aluminum is the slow poison if given food cooked in aluminum cookware. Because of its very cheap price and low maintenance, this came to our kitchen. If you have noticed, prisoners are being served their meals in aluminum utensils. While cooking, aluminum particles goes to our food gradually and hence accumulate in our body over the period of time.

To experiment this, you can weight the new vessel and after using for a few months, check the weight of the same. You will find it to be reduced to some extent.

Majorly affected area : 

Kidneys

Lungs

 

Solution :

Stainless steel instead as this is free from all chemicals found in aluminum.

 

4.   Plastic in the Kitchen: We all use plastic in many forms including bottles, tiffin boxes, serving bowl, etc. Plastic is made up of toxic material BPA. Some advertisers show BPA ( Bisphenol A )free plastic products but those are then made up of BPS ( Bisphenol S ) instead of BPA which is equally toxic and harmful for our body.

When we put hot servings in our plastic bottles or tiffin boxes, plastic releases toxic material and our food absorbs these toxins.

 

Majorly affected area : 

Immunity

Hormones

Obesity

 

Solution :

Use Stainless steel boxes

Glass Boxes

 

PS : Plastic is the major cause for today’s common women diseases like PCOD, PCOS, Thyroid and hormonal imbalance.

 

5.  Refined Oil : 

We all use refined oil for cooking, frying and sometimes baking as well. Refined oil is the most dangerous for health. Its name itself tells about the process. The process of refining it uses the acid and deodorized with chemical name hexanol. Deodorized is the process of removing bad odor occurs in the process of refining.

When we heat the refined on high flame, this Oxidised and produces transfat which is harmful to your body.

 

Majorly affected area : 

Heart problems

Cancer

 

Solution :

Use mustard oil as this has many great properties :

  • Contains antioxidants
  • Helps in reducing cholesterol
  • Contains low saturated fats

You can also use olive oil, desi ghee, homemade butter and sesame oil in winters. Earlier, there were no synthetic oils/refined in our kitchen. Our grandmother used to cook in the mustard oil or homemade ghee and there was no diseased like we are facing from past few years.
