how to cook healthy food

The first thing to keep in mind for healthy cooking is to use healthy ingredients rich in vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates and other essential nutrients. They are not only essential for the proper functioning of the entire system but also keep our immune system strong so that it can effectively fight diseases. Many people are aware of this fact and make it a point to have a balanced diet and choose the ingredients of choice carefully! But there are some equally important aspects of healthy cooking that are unfortunately overlooked – mostly due to lack of awareness.

One is that the utensils we use have a great impact on the quality of the food cooked in them. Consider traditional cookware which is made of various metals and ceramics which despite being so popular are not suitable for cooking. Why is it not appropriate? read on:

Food is a biochemical unit. All metals are reactive towards nutrients such as oxygen, hydrogen halogens, acids and bases. At cooking temperatures, the metals break down into ions and react with the food. They are then digested with food and get deposited in tissues and organs. When this continues for a long time, it becomes the foundation for various health problems that can range from minor ailments to chronic diseases. The immune system is also compromised making it difficult for the body to fight off diseases on its own.

Try touching a metal pan five minutes after heating, it burns the tissues and leaves a mark. The same thing happens to the nutrients in food when it’s cooked in metal or ceramic cookware. On the one hand, harsh heat damages delicate nutrients by dissolving them. On the other hand, water soluble nutrients evaporate in the form of steam and reduce the nutritional value of the food. What is left is food lacking in nutritive value and full of toxins.

It’s easy to find out if your cookware is leaching, just do a alkaline baking soda test To check the toxicity of the cookware at your home!

There’s no healthy cooking without healthy cookware! One that doesn’t leach toxins into food and doesn’t mess with nutrients. Pure clay is a healthy material suitable for making healthy cookware. It can be harvested from unirrigated and non-industrial land, as it is found in its purest form in those places. Pure clay has naturally inert properties that make it the most non-reactive of all cookware materials on the market.

Plus, they emit a unique far-infrared heat that penetrates deep into each grain and cooks it slowly without destroying the delicate nutrients. They are known for their excellent vapor management properties which play a vital role in preserving water soluble nutrients. Thus, the nutritional value of the food remains intact, making pure clay the best option for making healthy cookware.
