3 things in your kitchen which may be damaging your health. Number 1, aluminium foil. When we store anything hot, acidic, salty in aluminium foil, it has a high risk of leaching into our food. Studies have linked consumption of aluminium to Alzheimer's and other brain disorders. So let's use our brain to save our brain and stop using aluminium foil. Use parchment paper instead when wrapping food, or simply wrap in cloth. Number 2, microwaves. Even though research about microwaves out there is inconclusive, The radiation present inside a microwave distorts the energy of our food, reducing its nutrition. If you want to heat your food, it's much safer to do so on a stove by using clay or stainless steel utensil pot. Number 3, plastic wraps. Cling film releases BPA, bisphenol A, an industrial chemical, into the food it comes in contact with. BPA has been linked to cancer, decreased brain and heart health, and even infertility. A much safer option are glass containers, steel containers, cloth covers, and paper bags.
