Why You Should Ditch PFAS – Simple Kitchen Swaps for a Healthier Home

Our homes are meant to be safe, but there might be hidden toxins hanging around, especially in the kitchen. One of the main offenders? PFAS chemicals. These sneaky substances can be found in everyday kitchen items, and they may end up in our food, potentially harming our health. The good news is that making a few simple changes can help create a kitchen free from these toxins.

PFAS Chemicals are man-made chemicals that help make products non-stick, waterproof, and resistant to stains. You’ll find them in everyday items like non-stick cookware, food packaging, and some appliances. They have earnt their name “forever chemicals” as they don;t break down easily and can even seep into your food when cooking (definitely not something we’d want on our plates).

How to Spot PFAS in Your Kitchen

PFAS chemicals are often hiding in:

Non-stick cookware
Takeout containers and fast-food wrappers
Baking paper and parchment
Plastic food storage containers
Cookware and appliances with non-stick coatings

If an item is labelled non-stick, water-resistant, or stain-proof, there's a good chance PFAS is involved. Even some kitchen appliances contain PFAS in their coatings, which means they could be contaminating your food every time you cook.

Healthy Swaps for a PFAS-Free Kitchen

The good news is you don't have to overhaul your whole kitchen overnight. Start small by making a few simple swaps that can drastically reduce your exposure to PFAS.

Here’s how to create a healthier, toxin-free kitchen:

Upgrade Your Air Fryer (Without the Toxins)

Air fryers are a kitchen must-have - but truth is, many popular models contain non-stick coatings that may be loaded with PFAS. That means every time you're making crispy veggies or fries, you could be exposing your food to harmful chemicals.
