Can you cover plastic bags to store food, if they are food grade or not, and how they react to heat like boiling in the bag, or marinates with low ph levels?
Speaking about air fryers - do you know something more about the acrylamide from air friers compared to the other methods of making food ? I remember there was a spark that it is extremely dangerous as f.e air fryer fries can contain few times more of it than any other method but since the short burst of outrage. I haven't seen anything worth notice on the topic. Would love to have even a short from a source that is trustwory.
This one isn't correct. Teflon itself is a microplastic but not a poisonous material. The "forever chemical" PFOA is used in the manufacturing but not present in your pan. Yes, you should change your flaking pan, but it's not a huge chemical risk. "Technically, there are no health concerns with Teflon, specifically. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), “there are no proven risks to humans from using cookware coated with Teflon (or other non-stick surfaces).” But some experts are concerned about the health effects of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), a chemical that’s been used in the production of Teflon in the past. PFOA is one of thousands of chemicals in a family called polyflouroalkyl substances (PFAS) that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says “can lead to adverse health outcomes” in humans if consumed or absorbed. PFAS chemicals can stay in the body and accumulate over time. “Studies indicate that PFOA … can cause reproductive and developmental, liver and kidney, and immunological effects in laboratory animals. Both chemicals have caused tumors in animal studies,” the EPA says." Plus "PFOA hasn't been used in the production of Teflon since 2013." We're exposed to it in contaminated water because so much has been released into our environment. Quotes from cancercenter com. There's lots of sites with misinformation but I believe that this one is correct and you can probably easily find the government sources that it's based on.
Does *heat* no longer send these chems into the air via fumes? A Teflon rule of thumb is to never use around pet birds indoors because the fumes will kill them. What about US?
I mean, considering the fact that electricians warn against having your oven on self cleaning mode when you have parrots, the fumes can make them literally fall dead... Oh yeah and it's generally advised not to cook with Teflon in the presence of pet birds either- So no it doesn't kill you immediately, which is all the verification the FDA needs for it to be considered safe, yet we all know no one fell dead immediately after consuming vegetables with DDT sprayed on them in 1967, and many of those people got to live into their 90s Just because it doesn't kill you doesn't mean it's safe
Teflon doesn’t stick to anything. It doesn’t really react with anything. So when you eat it accidentally, it goes in and comes out. The worst thing is that you have to buy a new pan because the Teflon is coming off and everything sticks to it. But I get why you would not want to eat it.
Even then your not as fucked as you think if you don't worry so much about it. "oh there's micro bits of wierd stuff in my food?!" Yea no shit theres probably micro bits of a lot of stuff you didn't know, that's what happens when you look into a microscope and see all the stuff you didn't know is there. It's better to somtimes be ignorant to SOME of those things than constantly be worrying about it. This excludes *actual* toxic things like cyanide though.

That argument is stupid. If you sometimes breathed in cigarette smoke when you walked through the street it doesnt mean you should give up and smoke as well. You should minimize how many of these chemicals you ingest to save yourself. Use a filter for you water and use non-non-stick pans
Our water supply was straight up contaminated with teflon for a good while, and the water company was so weird when I called to ask about it. They asked "Are you pregnant?" I wasn't. But I wish I had asked to see what they had said then. The lady put me in the phone with a different guy I guess they had lined up to dance around the issue, because he was doing some verbal tapdancing around all my questions about how dangerous it was. The only straight answer I could get was that when it eventually rained, it would lessen the amount of chemicals they couldn't clean out of the water. We were having a dry spell.
Reminds me of a call centre I worked for. It was a money making racket not services provided. There is no more professionalism. Every dog worth his salt is out there trying to make a quick buck. We ordinary people have to do what the top of the pyramid tells us.
Not surprised. Dupont has a history of water and ground contamination and covering up health issues. (Look at ”The lawyer who became DuPonts worst nightmare” by the ny times, and the story of birth defects and C8)
"Teflon"? How could water be contaminated with Teflon? It is an extremely inert material and not at all soluble in water. At most it maybe exist as solid particles in very small amounts of which you will poop out unchanged.
@@harambejr Some older man I was talking to, told me. I had mentioned how nauseous I was getting after drinking tap water lately. I have no idea how he knew so much about it, it was probably in the newspaper, or something. It was awhile after the phone call, but next time the water company sent another little pamphlet with the water test results, I read through every chemical and ppm found in the water. There was way more teflon than the safe limit, it was listed under its chemical name. There was other stuff in there, too. I bought filtered water for awhile, and have a water filter now, though I'm sure it doesn't clean out the teflon. And I always read those water test results from the water company, now.
I mean he called people who are worried about micro plastics fear mongers even though its completely valid to worry about them considering they’re causing massive generational endocrine disruption. 😅
@@lifesjustfinebro don't worry about testosterone and sperm count halving in 50 years, they figured it out, all the doctors had to do is halve the considered normal levels of test and sperm count 😊
You right about the micro-plastics and particulates, but it still can be toxic! Multiple DuPont and peer-reviewed studies have shown that Teflon starts to degrade and offgas toxic chemicals at 464F and other cheaper PTFE coatings degrade as low as 396F. Even if most air fryers only claim to go up to 450F, some studies have shown that while the air inside the fryer generally stay at around 450F or bellow, the coated surface of some models can reach higher than 500F!
That's disgusting. Also, the not washing cast iron comes from.back when soaps were made of lye and would literally eat you pan back down to metal. Not necessary to not wash cast iron since like 1960, but old people gonna old and not learn and tell younger generations to do it their way
Actually there's a study that tested every single air fryer at various temperatures, using it correctly and everything and that toxic chemical was present in all air fryers even when used correctly 😊
It's the companies responsibility, and the governments responsibility to make companies do it when they don't want to, but the epa gets defunded every time a budget gets passed.
#FakeNews, IN FACT THEY CAN BE DANGEROUS .....there are studies now that show you SHOULD NOT USE AIR FRYERS INDOORS...Using indoors puts ADDITONAL TOXINS in an already polluted air (with microplastics as you said) 💯💯💯
Just a reminder that if you own Parrots that PTOFE and non stick costings are incredibly toxic and can kill, so switching to ceramic or stainless steel not only would get rid of the worry about eating the lining but it'd help protect our feathered friend's lungs 🥰
I bought an air fryer and it was just so flimsy and small I sent it back. I bought a stainless steel convection toaster oven instead. It works great, fits a 12 inch pizza, a whole chicken or a regular size loaf pan. You can buy an airfrying rack separately. Best purchase ever.
You can get convection microwaves which are the best of both oven worlds. It cooks things a heck of a lot quicker than regular ovens. I've even seen an air fryer/ microwave combo. Not sure how good it is though.
The only place you should use metal to clean is on other, uncoated metals. Which is basically just grills and oven racks. Otherwise you're just going to scratch it. This is also true of cast iron seasoning. Using metal to clean it is scratching the coating. If you've seasoned it right, it should be fine with a dishrag and some dawn (or other mild dish soap).
…you just ignore the PFAS issue. It still gets released into water during manufacturing, also there is almost no or very few models that are truly ceramic, 99% are nonstick coating with ceramic sprinkled in and claim to be ceramic, suggesting it does not contain PFAS when it is not true. I have not seen basket style air fryer that is fully stainless steel at all.
@@watts18269 don’t know what you are trying to say. PFAS is one of the biggest water pollutants, yet not many people knew about it including even some environmental researchers and scientists. It is disproportionally less known compared to other pollutants. Many don't even know there are thousands of PFAS.
@@watts18269 The effects of car exhaust fumes are well studied to have several negative health impacts. You also aren't eating off your muffler, you do eat off the non-stick coating though. It's amazing to me that we have people so ignorant nowadays as to already forget how bad smog was for people's health in the 80s.
@@giglioflexlook up the word facetious. It’s amazing to me that we have people so ignorant nowadays as to not understand the concept of ‘jokes’. Ps, I was around in the 80’s, I remember it well. Unlike you who was likely still chilling in your dad’s ballsack until this millennium.
@@dickjohnson9582 Seriously because we all know there has never been a widely accepted and popular product sold in America that turned out to be horrifically bad years later… Asbestos, cigarettes, HEROINE AND COCAINE, etc…
Yes exactly! Plus if you overheat Teflon it can kill small pets in your home. This has happened to people. So it actually is toxic, not just when it flakes.
I have seen how used airfriers and non stick frying pans look after a while - I will just stick to my cast iron frying pan and a regular oven with a fan setting. Les clutter on the counter and a lot less plastic.
Non-stick pan tips: Don't ever use them at full blast temperature. Don't use metal or abrasive utensils. Don't clean using scourers. Don't leave in sink with a pile of other dishes on top. Treat them well and they'll remain non-stick while lasting for years.
@@windyleecarr Yeah, I wish. Nonstick does not last long enough, IMO, even when you treat it perfectly. And I hate how you have to baby it -- you're only supposed to cook at like medium heat. It's ridiculous. Not to be rude to you, sorry, I guess nonstick is working much better for you! If I didn't have a glass stove, I'd be using cast iron, for sure, but for now I'm sticking with a ceramic coated skillet that is definitely scratched, but at least it's not peeling teflon.
@@ashtonraether5215 As far as I know, there's no actual health problem with it, I'm just afraid I'd set it down too hard and break the stove! Or scratch the surface. Do you like your stove with your new cast iron, then?
I will say that you absolutely need to worry about having teflon cookware if you own birds! It's typically only a problem if the teflon gets above a certain temperature, but I have too many second-hand horror stories of somebody letting a pan get a little hotter than normal and then every bird in the house dies.
I'm in my 60's and had birds in the house most of my life. I've burned the arse out of dozens of cheapo teflon pans and never had a bird die yet. Urban myth.
@@cincin4515it is Not a myth. Studies Show that the volatile substances in Teflon are Dangerous and birds are more susceptible. But it needs Like 270-300 °C for that.
@@cincin4515 I'll trust my friend who rehabs birds for a living and the scientifically documented effect of aerosolized teflon on bird style double respiration, but you keep putting your pets at risk all you like.
Instead of using silicone liners in our air fryer we use paper coffee filters. They soak up any excess oils and we just throw them away after the food is done. 99% of the time we don't even have to wash it just a quick wipe with a damp cloth.
If ever anyone had any doubt about what a champion of humanity Dr Karan can be, let this be your takeaway from this video. An esteemed Doctor in good health advocated for the use of air fryers and topped it off by eating a french fry. And is still in good shape. Godspeed Doctor, we love you and what you do.
Litteraly calling people with a perfectly reasonable concern about chemicals causing tumors and deformities in Newborns "fearmongerers" I wouldn't use any Teflon product. Avoid all plastics and all Teflon products at all costs.
@@carlpanzram7081 Damn tell me where did you get that cellphone or computer made entirely out of metal, with no PCB board, coatings for the cables, etc. You're exactly what he was referring to. I'm all on board of reducing plastic usage and waste but dude... chill. "AvOid aLL prOdUctS At AlL CosT" chill homie, eat a pizza and relax.
I have a very awesome toaster, oven, air fryer combo and I highly recommend it. That being said when I was a kid, my parents reused margarine containers as leftovers containers. If I get cancer, it will be because I spent the first 20 years of my life eating food. It was microwaved in containers that were meant to be disposable for my fate has already been sealed I’m gonna cook whatever.
Is that the Black and Decker toaster oven with air fryer capabilities? If so that's definitely a great appliance. Can fit a quarter inch baking sheet in there as well for the larger model.
@@Un1234l I've got that particular model myself, and it's a good tool. My only conundrum is that a lot of air fryer recipes assume you have one of the common models where you enter in the time and temp digitally. Dude, if I'm gonna enter in time and temp digitally on a hella expensive air fryer, I'll use my oven or Instant Pot. Better yet, if the weather's decent (neither sweltering or raining cats n dogs), I'll find some camping spot and cook my food over a fire. 😜
My gosh, I wonder if that's what happened to my preemie great-granddaughter. The doctor thought the problem with her failure to grow was in the cord. However, the cord was good but the placenta looked like ground up meat! PS. Baby is doing very well and went home with her mama after 4 days' observation @ 4# 5 oz. Thank you, God!
We have an incredible amount of PFAS exposure in the US. With my epidemiology and biostatistics background, I educate people on the various routes of exposure and how to reduce it when possible as well as how to hold their local water authority accountable for monitoring and intervening when levels get too high. We just don't know enough about PFAS to say it's safe for any age group, so try to limit exposure in the area that make sense to you and your lifestyle. 😊
But avoiding microplastics is trying to be 100% healthy. It's an unachievable goal. Instead of worrying about microplastics actually stop using plastics.
I'd love to see a video or short done on how the chemicals we absorb, eat, drink, & are passed to us in utero have caused a major pandemic of mental health disorders & mental illness in pretty much everyone. Many people like to categorize these disorders as "personality traits" of themselves or others, as these disorders are very stigmatized. I hope to see some videos addressing these issues in the future. It's a topic I feel like is avoided, that *really* needs to be addressed.
No one knows what the correlation is, and we wont know until like 10 years later. There’s millions of variables that could correlate with the rise of issues, but at the same time we dont know what is actually responsible for causation. If anything, the best explanation in rise of mental disorders is the fact we live in the new age with different and varying stressors in our lifes, and we have better tools and methods of diagnosing, and the paradigm of destigmatizing mental illness allows it to come out of obscurity; not because of mass chemical shit
@@jonathanandrew2909 that is completely different from teflon, yes the US has a problem with agricultural runoffs, that’s a problem anywhere with large scale farming.
@kingxkingz well both have been used for decades at high temperatures, really not a concern for me. If it does, it's minimal and bodies tend to do good at cleaning themselves out.
His blasé attitude to micro plastics pretty much negates everything he says about air fryers. Micro plastic being a very serious threat to human health, even being found in breast milk. Being a Dr clearly doesn’t mean you are smart.
Ninja and Cuisinart make air fryers that don’t contain nonstick materials and use a regular wire basket instead. you can get both at Kohl’s, which is where I bought mine, and they let you use coupons in addition to sale prices. I would hate to see anyone miss out on the joy of an air fryer out of fear. They’re the best cooking method ever.
Scratching the surface of Teflon pans is pretty difficult if you're using them correctly. Like, you shouldn't really be using metal utensils on any pan, but you realistically aren't going to scratch the surface of your Teflon pan if you use wood or silicone. Even then, it's realistically not a big enough amount to hurt you unless you're one of those people who keeps a Teflon pan that's so scratched off that it's basically useless.
The amount of contamination of Microplastics from air exposure is extremely minimal as compared to the leeching that occurs from non-stick coatings. It's completely inaccurate to say that it's only a concern if the coating flakes, studies have shown that leeching occurs regardless of flaking. In addition, the leech rate increases proportionate to the temperature, which is a problem for a air fryer that reach up to 400 to 450 degrees. There are also other chemical concerns with air fryers as well like BPA and various others. Some Air Fryer manufacturers disclose all potentially hazardous chemicals while others disclose nothing but you have to dig to find those disclosures. A 2022 report from Consumer reports found that despite no PFOA or PFAS claims, many nonstick coatings still contained them. In addition, replacing PFAS / PFOAs for non-stick surfaces isn't a silver bullet, companies have simply replaced a known carcinogen with something else that we have zero information on including both chemical composition and any information on it's impact on the human body. As history has shown us time and time again, a lack of information likely indicates that any replacement is really not safe. If it were safe and healthy, they'd have no problems disclosing more information about the products. This is DuPont we are talking about here, the same company that pushed lead filled gas despite being aware of the risk which poisoned a generation of Americans and lead to an entire decade of violence. It's also the same company that infected 99.6% of the world with forever chemicals. The fact that this company is even still operating despite the incalculable damage to humanity should give you extreme pause whenever thinking about using any non-stick coating that isn't providing full disclosure. Is slightly less cleanup worth really worth poisoning yourself? (mind you, a well seasoned carbon steel is pretty non-stick and completely non-toxic) Last, the Ceramic coating is not non-toxic. The chemical composition of the ceramic layer is not pure Ceramic and often a application layer is applied before the ceramic to help it bind to the pan better. Cookware made entirely out of ceramic can be non-toxic though (key words "can be") but the vast majority of the market uses cheap ceramic coatings with an application layer, both of which are vectors that likely introduce potential health hazards. Really though the vast majority of people will not know the above. There's a complete lack of government oversight in regards to chemical disclosures for things customers will use to cook their food and an even greater lack of oversight in regards to what companies can and can't use for food contact surfaces, particular those under high temperatures.
oh well, time to chow down on the large bits of blue plastic liner I find in like every second piece of frozen tilapia I slap into a pan whenever I flip it
They have metallic air fryers that look like toaster ovens, so I believe the true message is avoid CHEAP food equipment. And, if you buy cheap, RESEARCH HEAVILY
@@shellytarbet3677they need to have holes in them, but like any paper in the oven, need to be kept away from the burner/element, and wax paper never used
Dyes are much easier to avoid than Teflon IMO. I guess I say that as a cook whose wrists break when using cast iron and someone whos allergic to dyes though lol but still, there's nothing dyed that I need and there are dye free alternatives to just about everything other than skittles lol a lot of people don't tolerate them well and just don't connect the dots. They can cause anything from headaches to rashes to anxiety/insomnia, hives, nausea, runny nose etc.
Finding out the lining of your air fryer is toxic because it's the lining of an air fryer, but it was your go-to family weekday meal for when you don't have time to cook 😢😢
My parents have recently given me their air fryer as they wanted a bigger one. I haven't used it yet, but I planned on lining it with baking paper, mostly to help with cleanup.
Your life is about to change. I honestly think most fried foods taste better in the Air fryer than traditional deep frying because you get to taste the food instead of just the oil. oh, and you can't make pancakes in it.... there was a "hack" video going around recently, fyi
@@connald483 I've never deep fried anything myself, only had it when eating at restaurants, so my life is really going to change. And thanks for the info about the hack, somehow I've managed to avoid that video
Things like that only empasize how good our lives have become. A century or two ago a rotten tooth could be the end of you and today our cooking utensils might chip away a month of our 90+ life expectancy.
The family of chemicals in chemical nonstick coatings are one of the primary drivers of cancer and endocrine disruption of the past 80 years. It is why many countries have banned or restricted their use, and why several of the largest cookware manufacturers in the US have committed to phase out specific chemicals to avoid the regulatory hammer. Chemical nonstick coatings are incredibly bad for you. It is not fear mongering to point this out. It is incredibly harmful to be disingenuous and downplay the health impact of it.
I bought one of these air fryers with the non stick coating, and it was a night mare to clean. The burnt on oil was impossible to remove. Got myself a stainless steel one recently and i couldn't be without it.
Air fryers and non-stick pots and pans are something you do need to think carefully about if you have pet birds since they're much more sensitive to things in the air than we are.
Iron is a big part of what makes blood what it is, so … it’s not really a comparison. You’re way better off cooking in a shitty iron pot and in fact a lot of “health conscious” people switch from non-stick Teflon to old fashioned steel or iron pans for safety reasons. People will even put iron objects in the food they cook to help with iron deficiency in their diet (look up “iron fish.”) PFOAs, Teflon etc is not an essential nutrient of the human diet and has been linked to causing cancer which is why he said not to even scratch it. If there was zero concern he wouldn’t bother warning against it on any level.

I agree with you. It’s irresponsible to sell things that will be toxic to those who use it.
Our water supply was straight up contaminated with teflon for a good while, and the water company was so weird when I called to ask about it. They asked "Are you pregnant?" I wasn't. But I wish I had asked to see what they had said then. The lady put me in the phone with a different guy I guess they had lined up to dance around the issue, because he was doing some verbal tapdancing around all my questions about how dangerous it was. The only straight answer I could get was that when it eventually rained, it would lessen the amount of chemicals they couldn't clean out of the water. We were having a dry spell.
Reminds me of a call centre I worked for. It was a money making racket not services provided. There is no more professionalism. Every dog worth his salt is out there trying to make a quick buck. We ordinary people have to do what the top of the pyramid tells us.
Not surprised. Dupont has a history of water and ground contamination and covering up health issues. (Look at ”The lawyer who became DuPonts worst nightmare” by the ny times, and the story of birth defects and C8)
"Teflon"? How could water be contaminated with Teflon? It is an extremely inert material and not at all soluble in water. At most it maybe exist as solid particles in very small amounts of which you will poop out unchanged.
How’d you find out it was contaminated? Every time it rains here, the water has a strong bleach smell and it irritates and dries my skin out
@@harambejr Some older man I was talking to, told me. I had mentioned how nauseous I was getting after drinking tap water lately. I have no idea how he knew so much about it, it was probably in the newspaper, or something. It was awhile after the phone call, but next time the water company sent another little pamphlet with the water test results, I read through every chemical and ppm found in the water. There was way more teflon than the safe limit, it was listed under its chemical name. There was other stuff in there, too. I bought filtered water for awhile, and have a water filter now, though I'm sure it doesn't clean out the teflon. And I always read those water test results from the water company, now.
I loved how he didn't ridicule the opening post and calmly explained the context he wanted to share.
Same. I havent EVER seen a video where he mocks people. He treats everybody w respect. Great attitude and example for our current world.

I love countering a terrifying half truth with an even worse whole truth
You right about the micro-plastics and particulates, but it still can be toxic!
Multiple DuPont and peer-reviewed studies have shown that Teflon starts to degrade and offgas toxic chemicals at 464F and other cheaper PTFE coatings degrade as low as 396F. Even if most air fryers only claim to go up to 450F, some studies have shown that while the air inside the fryer generally stay at around 450F or bellow, the coated surface of some models can reach higher than 500F!
That's for offspring. Teflon also leeches chemicals into food as heat increases as well

People out here worried about nonstick coating in their air fryer, while cooking french fries coated in highly processed seed oils and preservatives.
I bought an air fryer and it was just so flimsy and small I sent it back. I bought a stainless steel convection toaster oven instead. It works great, fits a 12 inch pizza, a whole chicken or a regular size loaf pan. You can buy an airfrying rack separately. Best purchase ever.
You can get convection microwaves which are the best of both oven worlds. It cooks things a heck of a lot quicker than regular ovens.
I've even seen an air fryer/ microwave combo. Not sure how good it is though.
My Dad was a chemical engineer. He used to say all the time DO NOT USE METAL to clean or scrape or stir.... he is right about marring the surface.
The only place you should use metal to clean is on other, uncoated metals. Which is basically just grills and oven racks. Otherwise you're just going to scratch it. This is also true of cast iron seasoning. Using metal to clean it is scratching the coating. If you've seasoned it right, it should be fine with a dishrag and some dawn (or other mild dish soap).
…you just ignore the PFAS issue. It still gets released into water during manufacturing, also there is almost no or very few models that are truly ceramic, 99% are nonstick coating with ceramic sprinkled in and claim to be ceramic, suggesting it does not contain PFAS when it is not true. I have not seen basket style air fryer that is fully stainless steel at all.
Wait until you hear about exhaust fumes and ultraviolet radiation 😎
@@watts18269 don’t know what you are trying to say. PFAS is one of the biggest water pollutants, yet not many people knew about it including even some environmental researchers and scientists. It is disproportionally less known compared to other pollutants. Many don't even know there are thousands of PFAS.
@@watts18269 The effects of car exhaust fumes are well studied to have several negative health impacts. You also aren't eating off your muffler, you do eat off the non-stick coating though.

Edit: I have the air fryer XL and it is ceramic coated.
I have seen how used airfriers and non stick frying pans look after a while - I will just stick to my cast iron frying pan and a regular oven with a fan setting.
Les clutter on the counter and a lot less plastic.
Non-stick pan tips: Don't ever use them at full blast temperature. Don't use metal or abrasive utensils. Don't clean using scourers. Don't leave in sink with a pile of other dishes on top. Treat them well and they'll remain non-stick while lasting for years.
@@windyleecarr Yeah, I wish. Nonstick does not last long enough, IMO, even when you treat it perfectly. And I hate how you have to baby it -- you're only supposed to cook at like medium heat. It's ridiculous. Not to be rude to you, sorry, I guess nonstick is working much better for you! If I didn't have a glass stove, I'd be using cast iron, for sure, but for now I'm sticking with a ceramic coated skillet that is definitely scratched, but at least it's not peeling teflon.

I will say that you absolutely need to worry about having teflon cookware if you own birds! It's typically only a problem if the teflon gets above a certain temperature, but I have too many second-hand horror stories of somebody letting a pan get a little hotter than normal and then every bird in the house dies.
Yes. Those coatings are toxic to birds. If you overheat something, it can kill a pet bird. I used to be careful with my pans when I owned birds.
I'm in my 60's and had birds in the house most of my life. I've burned the arse out of dozens of cheapo teflon pans and never had a bird die yet.
Urban myth.
@@cincin4515it is Not a myth. Studies Show that the volatile substances in Teflon are Dangerous and birds are more susceptible. But it needs Like 270-300 °C for that.
@@cincin4515 I'll trust my friend who rehabs birds for a living and the scientifically documented effect of aerosolized teflon on bird style double respiration, but you keep putting your pets at risk all you like.
What
Instead of using silicone liners in our air fryer we use paper coffee filters. They soak up any excess oils and we just throw them away after the food is done. 99% of the time we don't even have to wash it just a quick wipe with a damp cloth.
I use paper liners.is parchment paper better option?

We have an incredible amount of PFAS exposure in the US. With my epidemiology and biostatistics background, I educate people on the various routes of exposure and how to reduce it when possible as well as how to hold their local water authority accountable for monitoring and intervening when levels get too high. We just don't know enough about PFAS to say it's safe for any age group, so try to limit exposure in the area that make sense to you and your lifestyle. 😊
I'm going to guess your background consists of reading shit on Wikopedia and not understanding statistics

I'd love to see a video or short done on how the chemicals we absorb, eat, drink, & are passed to us in utero have caused a major pandemic of mental health disorders & mental illness in pretty much everyone.
Many people like to categorize these disorders as "personality traits" of themselves or others, as these disorders are very stigmatized.
I hope to see some videos addressing these issues in the future. It's a topic I feel like is avoided, that *really* needs to be addressed.
No one knows what the correlation is, and we wont know until like 10 years later. There’s millions of variables that could correlate with the rise of issues, but at the same time we dont know what is actually responsible for causation. If anything, the best explanation in rise of mental disorders is the fact we live in the new age with different and varying stressors in our lifes, and we have better tools and methods of diagnosing, and the paradigm of destigmatizing mental illness allows it to come out of obscurity; not because of mass chemical shit

Use an air fryer lid with stainless inner pot -instant pot
I love how in the same breath he’s like it’s fine UNLESS you do something mundane like scratch the surface
Scratching the surface of Teflon pans is pretty difficult if you're using them correctly. Like, you shouldn't really be using metal utensils on any pan, but you realistically aren't going to scratch the surface of your Teflon pan if you use wood or silicone.
Even then, it's realistically not a big enough amount to hurt you unless you're one of those people who keeps a Teflon pan that's so scratched off that it's basically useless.
I should have asked for an Air Fryer for Father's Day. Instead I had the kids clean their rooms.
Did they do it, and properly?
The air fryer would've lasted longer.
Glad you didn’t go into full science denial mode. Good advice!
The amount of contamination of Microplastics from air exposure is extremely minimal as compared to the leeching that occurs from non-stick coatings. It's completely inaccurate to say that it's only a concern if the coating flakes, studies have shown that leeching occurs regardless of flaking. In addition, the leech rate increases proportionate to the temperature, which is a problem for a air fryer that reach up to 400 to 450 degrees. There are also other chemical concerns with air fryers as well like BPA and various others. Some Air Fryer manufacturers disclose all potentially hazardous chemicals while others disclose nothing but you have to dig to find those disclosures.
A 2022 report from Consumer reports found that despite no PFOA or PFAS claims, many nonstick coatings still contained them. In addition, replacing PFAS / PFOAs for non-stick surfaces isn't a silver bullet, companies have simply replaced a known carcinogen with something else that we have zero information on including both chemical composition and any information on it's impact on the human body. As history has shown us time and time again, a lack of information likely indicates that any replacement is really not safe. If it were safe and healthy, they'd have no problems disclosing more information about the products. This is DuPont we are talking about here, the same company that pushed lead filled gas despite being aware of the risk which poisoned a generation of Americans and lead to an entire decade of violence. It's also the same company that infected 99.6% of the world with forever chemicals. The fact that this company is even still operating despite the incalculable damage to humanity should give you extreme pause whenever thinking about using any non-stick coating that isn't providing full disclosure. Is slightly less cleanup worth really worth poisoning yourself? (mind you, a well seasoned carbon steel is pretty non-stick and completely non-toxic)
Last, the Ceramic coating is not non-toxic. The chemical composition of the ceramic layer is not pure Ceramic and often a application layer is applied before the ceramic to help it bind to the pan better. Cookware made entirely out of ceramic can be non-toxic though (key words "can be") but the vast majority of the market uses cheap ceramic coatings with an application layer, both of which are vectors that likely introduce potential health hazards.
Really though the vast majority of people will not know the above. There's a complete lack of government oversight in regards to chemical disclosures for things customers will use to cook their food and an even greater lack of oversight in regards to what companies can and can't use for food contact surfaces, particular those under high temperatures.

Until you get cancer, that is
The family of chemicals in chemical nonstick coatings are one of the primary drivers of cancer and endocrine disruption of the past 80 years.
It is why many countries have banned or restricted their use, and why several of the largest cookware manufacturers in the US have committed to phase out specific chemicals to avoid the regulatory hammer.
Chemical nonstick coatings are incredibly bad for you. It is not fear mongering to point this out. It is incredibly harmful to be disingenuous and downplay the health impact of it.

Iron is a big part of what makes blood what it is, so … it’s not really a comparison. You’re way better off cooking in a shitty iron pot and in fact a lot of “health conscious” people switch from non-stick Teflon to old fashioned steel or iron pans for safety reasons.
People will even put iron objects in the food they cook to help with iron deficiency in their diet (look up “iron fish.”)
PFOAs, Teflon etc is not an essential nutrient of the human diet and has been linked to causing cancer which is why he said not to even scratch it. If there was zero concern he wouldn’t bother warning against it on any level.
