Non-stick cookware coated with PTFE (Teflon) or other PFAS compounds releases toxic particles and gases when overheated or scratched. These 'forever chemicals' accumulate in the body and have been linked to thyroid disease, cancer, and immune dysfunction. Every meal cooked in a scratched non-stick pan is a potential exposure event.
Why We Rated It This Way
GreenPan's Thermolon coating is one of the most studied ceramic non-stick coatings. Their transparency about the coating chemistry is commendable. The hard anodized base adds durability compared to standard aluminum.
