PFAS-Free Cooking Guide
Everything you need to know about PFAS chemicals and how to avoid them in your kitchen
What are PFAS?
PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) are synthetic chemicals commonly called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down in the environment or human body. They're found in many non-stick coatings and have been linked to serious health concerns.
Health Risks of PFAS
Research has linked PFAS exposure to several serious health conditions:
- •Increased cancer risk (kidney and testicular)
- •Hormone disruption and thyroid disease
- •Weakened immune system
- •Reproductive and developmental issues
- •Increased cholesterol levels
- •Liver damage

5 Steps to a PFAS-Free Kitchen
1. Audit Your Cookware
Check all your pots, pans, and appliances for non-stick coatings. If it says "non-stick" and isn't ceramic or labeled PFAS-free, it likely contains harmful chemicals.
2. Replace High-Use Items First
Start with cookware you use daily. Your air fryer, main frying pan, and baking sheets should be your priority replacements.
3. Choose Glass or Stainless Steel
Invest in quality glass (like TEVOLUX), stainless steel, or cast iron options. These materials last longer and are completely safe.
4. Be Careful with "PFAS-Free" Claims
Some products claim to be PFAS-free but use similar chemicals. Look for third-party certifications and transparent materials like pure glass or stainless steel.
5. Maintain Your PFAS-Free Cookware
Glass and stainless steel are easy to maintain. Use appropriate utensils, clean properly, and your PFAS-free cookware will last for decades.
