A precious metal and second to gold, Silver has been a part of every Indian household for a long time. Flaunting its shiny-slivery glaze, it is exceedingly cold to the touch, leaving a cooling impact on the digested food when eaten on it. Silver also has antimicrobial and anti-bacterial properties and leaves a good and lasting effect on gut health and immunity. Consuming food prepared in silverware is also said to impact the person's temperament and make him cool down quickly. advertisement trending now #2. Copper

Science has always taught us that copper conducts maximum heat and therefore is the most suitable option for cooking vessels. Additionally, copper also has immense anti-bacterial qualities. Ancient Ayurvedic studies have proven that using copper vessels for cooking improves the digestive system and detoxifies the complete body. However, avoiding eating anything sour or acidic in taste in copper vessels is recommended, as it may react with the metal and make it taste otherwise. advertisement advertisement

Stainless steel

Steel utensils are the most commonly available kitchenware in many households these days. Being a popular choice among people, it is known for its non-reactive quality to almost everything. Therefore, it makes the food prepared in it safe and hassle-free. Moreover, it does not release any toxic substance on prolonged use, making it one of the safest metals for cookware. #4. Bronze

Besides its common usage in art pieces and décor, Bronze can also become an exceptional metal for cookware. Also referred to as Brass, when used to cook or serve food, this metal effectively reduces its acid content and makes it aid digestion and gut health. It also helps improve food absorption and fill the body with essential nutrients that it may be lacking otherwise. #5. Aluminium

Renowned for its exceeding usage in the baking industry, aluminium comes to be the handiest metal people look for as kitchenware. Being comparatively lightweight and non-greasy, it makes cooking easier in many aspects. However, recent studies also prove that apart from its easy availability, ensuring that the vessel is adequately anodised is always correct. Un-anodised aluminium can release aluminium into the food, making it highly toxic.

Iron is an essential micronutrient required for our body, and so is cooking in cast-iron-made utensils equally beneficial for our health. It is known for its high-heat durability and effectiveness in slow cooking. In addition, it helps retain the original nutrients of the food being prepared and counts in a lot of iron content for the body. However, cast iron utensils are not a good option for storing food since it hampers the taste and makes it quite acrid. #7. Non-stick

Despite its hassle-free addition to cooking, non-stick is not a good option for use as a daily cookware material. Due to its non-stick coating, it has been used widely for its ease. However, the chemical used for such a layer, called Teflon, is not suitable for health. Teflon-coating is toxic, and researchers have proven it to be carcinogenic in nature with prolonged use. advertisement #8. Glass

Glass has been an age-old used material for cookware as well as crockery. Due to its elegant appearance, people have mainly used it to serve and eat food. However, it has also been a helpful addition to baking procedures, as it can tolerate high heating temperatures in recent years. In addition, it is non-reactive in nature and therefore does not harm the food. It is also a perfect option for storing food, as it does not affect its quality.

Well, we hope that you have got an idea as to which material of cookware is good for your health, and it will surely help you to choose wisely. advertisement
