Is your skillet/pan as kitchen-safe as advertised? 🍳 🤔 Let’s take a look and find out! 👉 If the pan is made with Teflon, it goes straight into the trash can! 🗑️ The forever chemicals can cause cancer, hormonal disruptions, and a host of nasty side effects that aren’t worth the “no-stick benefit.” 👉 If the pan is ceramic coated, the jury is still out, but I’m not entirely sold just yet. Research shows that extreme heat can cause lead to leech out, which isn’t ideal for a kitchen tool you’ll probably have under high heat often 😑 They are better than Teflon. However, I still recommend minimal usage to avoid the potential lead exposure. 👉 Stainless Steel (the pan used most often by most folks) - If you’re going to use stainless steel pans, use 18/0 (0% nickel) over 18/10 (10% nickel) if you can so you can reduce the risk of exposing yourself to excess nickel (Non-Toxic Dad would rather avoid a neurotoxin like nickel than have a more corrosive-resistant pan 😆). 👉 Carbon Steel/Cast Iron - these require some TLC to maintain upkeep, but they are the Non-Toxic Dad-preferred pans for the non-stick route. For Carbon Steel, Non-Toxic Dad enjoys the de Buyer Mineral B Series (the beeswax they coat their pans with is toxin-free). 👉 Pure-Ceramic - Non-Toxic Dad is not a fan of ceramic coating, but a pure ceramic pan can be a great choice! They aren’t ideal for non-stick, but they are a non-toxic option for your kitchen (and great for sauteeing vegetables) 🥕 ! #cookware #healthyhome #cookingtips #healthhacks #nontoxicliving

Keurig coffee makers can be making you sick! If you needed a reason to STOP using Keurig coffee makers, I've got one for you...And it's a DOOZY! And no, it’s not just because of all the plastics and chemicals both in the coffee maker and the K-Cups! 👉 It's because of a new phenomenon called Keurig sickness! ☕️ 🤢 People who use Keurigs and similar coffee makers daily for long periods have been reporting issues such as nausea, headaches, fatigue, and stomach cramps. This is not just from the leached plastic toxins in every cup of coffee your Keurig makes. 🤢 The real culprit? 👉 Mold, bacteria, and fungi are growing inside the machine that you can't always see until it's too late! Tests conducted on Keurigs and other coffee machines have found staph, E. coli, strep, and toxic mold strains all hiding in areas that are difficult to see or clean. 😳 In all fairness, Keurig does state in the manual that you should clean it often to avoid any toxic by-product buildup; however, be honest, how many of you deep clean your Keurig every week, at the very least? 🤨 Yeah...I doubt it's many of you... My advice: DITCH THE KEURIG and any coffee machines and go old-school. ✅ Make cowboy coffee ☕️ 😂 or even better grab a 100% stainless steel or glass French press, or a nice 100% glass or ceramic pour-over. ☕️ 🙌 Don't forget to share this with someone who runs on the convenience of a Keurig. #Keurig #CoffeeMaker #CoffeeMachine #Coffee #NonToxicLiving
