Question 1

Is induction cooking safe for use?

Accepted Answer

The induction cooker or induction cooktop is widely used in the world, but the hazards of using the cooktop are less known to people since this product is represented as one of the best on the market. Also, it is a fancy product that can complement your kitchen, but is it safe to use? That is a great question.

So if you already bought an induction cooktop or you might be thinking of getting one, you should think twice before using it or purchasing it. Induction cooking is not safe at all because it emits EMF radiation that can be really dangerous for adults and especially dangerous for children and infants.

It is more dangerous for infants and children because their brains are not completely developed. They are in the process of development, so if they come in contact with the radiation, their brain cells can get damaged. Also, remember the infant skeleton is not as strong as in adults or even children. So, the radiation might go even deeper into their bodies and make a lot of changes. 

The EMF radiation goes from the cooktop into your pan, and once you touch the pan, part of the radiation is directly transferred into your body. This is non-ionizing radiation and actually emits a lot of the radiation. So, it is not safe to stand next to it or even touch it.

Question 2

Can induction cooking cause cancer?

Accepted Answer

Well, the answer might vary and depends on many factors. The induction cooktops are emitting EMF, which is dangerous for everyone, especially children and infants. We all have different bodies, and we all have different health conditions, some of them could be mild, some of them are more serious. 

However, the overall exposure to the EMF radiation, which is actually emitted from the induction cooktop, and many more electrical devices that you have in your home might be dangerous for your overall health, and it might even cause cancer. 

Moreover, we need to take into consideration how the EMF radiation affects the food that is cooked on an induction cooktop. The vegetables, fruits, and meat are full of vitamins, minerals and the meat is full of proteins necessary for our bodies. But, unfortunately, the induction cooker reduces their overall minerals, flavors, vitamins, and also proteins by up to 75%.

Question 3

Are induction cooktops safe for use by pregnant women?

Accepted Answer

The answer is simply no. You might ask “why not, it is only a cooktop, and we all need to cook our food on something.” Well, first of all, the induction cooker emits dangerous EMF radiation levels that can harm you and your baby. 

This can be simply explained, so once you touch the pan that you are cooking, some of the radiation spreads through your body. Remember that your baby is also affected by everything that is going on around you and also everything that you eat and touch. The baby's organs are still not developed, their brain is not developed, and you don't want to cause them any negative effects. 

The higher magnetic fields and the radiation are usually emitted directly to your lower abdomen and your pelvic region. This is one more reason why pregnant ladies are more exposed to the magnetic field and radiation. And that is why many women might have problematic pregnancies. Also, remember that the food that you are cooking using your induction cooker is low in minerals, vitamins, and proteins. This is another reason why you should stop using it.
