Show Notes
Gas cookers are a common feature in many kitchens, often preferred by chefs and home cooks for their precise temperature control but gas cookers emit a number of harmful substances when they are in use and even when they are off that can pollute the indoor air and harm your health.
Nitrogen dioxide, or NO2, is a gas that is produced when natural gas is burned at high temperatures. It can damage your airways and worsen asthma and COPD. A recent report by the Dutch Lung Foundation found that gas cookers increased the risk of asthma in children by 42%.
What are some other of these pollutants and their effects? And what can you do to reduce these risks? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
