About Me

Hi, this is somebody who has taken the quieter by-lane to be happy. The hustle and bustle of the big, booming main street was too intimidating. Passing through the quieter by-lane I intend to reach a solitary path, laid out just for me, to reach my destiny, to be happy primarily, and enjoy the fruits of being happy. (www.sandeepdahiya.com)

Perils of cooking in aluminium utensils

Cooking in Aluminium utensils is risky for health. In simple words you can say it introduces slow poison in your food. According to researchers, cooking in Aluminium is not advisable. In India we even have a conspiracy theory about it. Most probably just a spin off of anti-colonial talk. They say that cooling in aluminium utensils was first introduced in the infamous cellular jail, Kala Pani jail, in Andamans by the British govt to slowly cripple the prisoners so that they won't be blamed with direct slaughter. And then the trend continued. Most of the modern day diseases have roots in Aluminium cooking, they say. Well, at least research has concluded that aluminium dissolved in the food during cooking gets deposited in brain resulting in Alzheimer disease. Our body basically doesn't require aluminium. So it is advisable to use stainless steel pressure cookers and other kitchen utensils where boiling is involved.
