Are there carcinogens in rice cooker liners? WHO calls for decommissioning, CCTV experiment to expla

Mondo Health Updated on 2024-02-17

Can you believe it? The rice cooker that every household is using is not only toxic but also carcinogenic, CCTV personally tested the experiment, and the result is true!

So, can you still eat fragrant rice cooked in a rice cooker? And how do we use the rice cooker correctly? Hearing that the rice cooker used to cook rice was poisonous, everyone was shocked and thought it was incredible.

But strictly speaking, not all rice cookers are poisonous, nor is it a certain brand or type of rice cooker that is toxic, but specifically refers to a rice cooker that uses aluminum as an inner liner and accidentally cuts the inner bile membrane.

The reason why aluminum is a material for cooking cookware is simple, it is easy to take, has good thermal conductivity, is strong and durable, and is not easy to rust, and the production and maintenance costs are relatively low.

But with the growth of use time, the aluminum liner of the rice cooker was exposed to be problematic, and CCTV TV personally went to the field to certify! This is because aluminum decomposes aluminum ions at high temperatures.

Aluminum ions will combine to form aluminum-containing compounds such as aluminum salts and aluminates, from which the harmful toxins we mentioned to the human body come from.

After a large amount of accumulation in the body, it will affect the health of the nervous system, and it is easy to suffer from Alzheimer's disease, and the deposition of aluminum will also endanger the normal operation of human lung organs.

Is there a scientific basis for rice cookers that are "poisonous, and carcinogenic?" There are several materials for rice cooker liners, namely aluminum liners, stainless steel liners, ceramic liners, etc.

Almost all of the aluminum liners we use in our daily life are aluminum liners, but aluminum products cannot be in direct contact with food, so there is a coating on the inner liner, which is "Teflon".

This substance is stable, does not fall off easily, also prevents the rice from sticking to the inside of the pan, and most importantly it blocks the contact between food and aluminum.

Experiments have shown that when the temperature reaches 300, Teflon can begin to decompose, and with the continuous increase in temperature, Teflon decomposes more toxic substances, which will directly harm the human body.

But we can rest assured, because the maximum temperature of our usual cooking is only 103, so there is no special harm to the body, provided that we buy a regular rice cooker.

There is also a situation where the rice cooker will be harmful to the human body, that is, the coating is scratched, and the rice cooker with the coating peeling off must not continue to be used! It does cause harm to the human body.

However, most of the rice cookers used in China are within the range of the highest standards and will not cause harm to the body, so you don't have to worry too much! Do you know how to use a rice cooker properly? What are the consequences of using a rice cooker incorrectly?

Teflon is the invention patent of a company in the United States in the last century, because of its unique stability, it is quite well received, and it has been favored by everyone as soon as it is listed, but it itself is not easy to mess with.

There is a taxi driver in Guangzhou, in order to save money, he makes a pot of rice at home and pickles to solve a meal on the spot.

Then one day he found that he was not feeling well, so he went to the hospital for examination, and the results showed that liver cancer was advanced. After investigation, it was found that in addition to Master Sun's bad living habits, he also had a **.

That is, the coating of the rice cooker has all fallen off, and in order to save hundreds of dollars, Master Sun is reluctant to change it, thus precipitating so many toxic substances.

When cleaning the rice cooker, you need to pay attention to the fact that you must not use things like steel wool balls, although the inner coating of the rice cooker is resistant to high temperature, acid and alkali, but it cannot resist the steel wool balls, if the coating is damaged, then the rice cooker should also be replaced.

In short, in modern society, our lives are inseparable from rice cookers, but we must also use them correctly, after all, many disasters are caused by unintentional mistakes, after all, be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, what do you think about this?
