It turns out that our kitchens may contain items that pose a mortal danger.
Experts, including oncologists, recommend getting rid of them as quickly as possible.
Moreover, this applies to both food products and kitchen utensils.
In order to avoid exposing yourself to unnecessary and serious danger, experts have given several recommendations.
But first they told us what exactly is highly undesirable to keep in the kitchen.
Avoid candies with bright colors, especially those sold near the checkout.
The brightness of these sweets is achieved through chemical dyes containing benzene, which is very dangerous for the body.
Also, do not keep processed meats at home, such as various smoked meats, cold cuts, and hot dogs.
These products contain nitrates, which extend their shelf life, but also increase the likelihood of developing cancer many times over.
As for utensils, experts advise against using non-stick pans.
When heated, their coatings can release harmful substances that negatively affect hormonal levels.
Also get rid of plastic utensils, especially black ones.
As is known, plastic (especially recycled) is full of chemical compounds that can lead to cancer.
As an alternative, experts recommend using safe cookware, such as stainless steel and cast iron pans and pots.
It is recommended to use wooden and metal spoons and spatulas.
The named materials, experts say, are not only safe, but also durable.
