Is Ceramic Cookware Safe?

If you are debating changing up your cookware and investing in ceramic cookware, you may have a lot of questions. One of the main questions I hear though has to be  “Is Ceramic Cookware Safe?” So today, I am going to answer that question for you. 

Ceramic cookware is steadily growing in popularity lately. I have been seeing more and more people invest in ceramic pots and pans and ditch their traditional non-stick cookware. 

While we know now that most non-stick pots and pans aren’t great for you, people still want to know, is ceramic cookware a safe alternative? 

Is Ceramic Cookware Safe?

The short of it is yes. Ceramic cookware is perfectly safe. In fact, it is one of the safest cookware types on the market right now. 

It is non-toxic while still being nonstick.  Ceramic is a much safer and healthier cooking option than pans with Teflon.

In fact, have you heard of the Teflon Flu?

I had never heard this term before, but when I started researching I was blown away at how gross and unhealthy some of our cookware really is. 

After learning more about the Teflon flu and the benefits of choosing ceramic cookware, I am glad that I made the choice to make the switch. 

Basically, Teflon flu is caused by inhaling the fumes that are released when PTFE ( Teflon)reaches temperatures of over 500°. These fumes can cause fever, flu-like symptoms such as chills, headaches, and body aches. 

You may be thinking that 500° is super high and your cookware will never be that hot, but you would be surprised how hot your cookware can get. It doesn’t take much to get your pan up to that temperature, and honestly, I just don’t want to take that risk. 

Make the Switch to Ceramic Cookware

With ceramic cookware, you never run the risk of the Teflon flu. It is toxin-free, non-stick cookware that will last you for years to come with proper care. 

If you are looking for the best ceramic cookware to invest in, then I highly suggest checking out Caraway. This is the brand that I own and I absolutely love my pans. I use them every day and they really have been standing up to the test of time and use.
