When you're making a nice meal for your family, the last thing you want to do is worry about chemicals leaching into their food from the pots and pans. And on the flip side of the same coin, it also stinks to have a bunch of crusty food firmly stuck to the pans once you're done. It's a constant battle between convenience and health. Of course, the idea of non-stick pans is very appealing. But, as you might remember from our episode all about PFAs, ingredients like Teflon can pose a major risk to your health. So today, I'm taking you through three categories of cookware. We'll start with the "avoid at all cost" pots and pans and how to spot them on your next shopping trip. Then, we'll move on to the convenient and not-quite-as-bad for you category.   I'll take you through the pros and cons of PFAS-free nonstick coatings from brands like GreenPan and Caraway (trust me, I've tried them all). Generally, the options in this category have a short life span and might end up costing you more in the long run. And finally, we've got the toxin-free options I swear by! Keep in mind - these still have their drawbacks when it comes to convenience and cost. So at the end of the day, it's all about making the decision that makes the most sense for you and your family with all of the information at your fingertips!head on over to www.detoxyourpits.com and use discount code WENDYKATHRYN at checkout for 10% off! If you enjoyed this weeks' episode, please: Leave a positive review or rating wherever you listen Shop toxin free products on my Toxin Free Shopping Guide Download your free Tossing the Toxins Guide Post a screenshot and what you loved and tag me on Instagram @wendy_toxinfreeish Want to ask me a question to get answered on the podcast?
