The development of technologies, including the technologies of cooking, is steadily proceeding. Currently, many well-known manufacturers of household appliances offer the consumer to purchase induction cookers and hobs. Consumers, in turn, when choosing the kitchen appliances are asked whether the induction cooker is harmful, and if so, what exactly. Consumers are easy to understand, because many people want to eat healthy and properly cooked food.
Induction plate minuses
Damage induction plate for health, although minimal, but exists, as this device creates a vortex electromagnetic field. And yet, this harm is miserable, for example, in comparison with mobile phones, which we also press hard against the head during conversations. But the principle of the slab is not the only drawback. To use the induction cooker, you will have to change almost all the dishes in the house that were prepared earlier. Suitable only for special dishes that have a magnetic bottom (with the other dishes this ultra-modern device will not work). Thus, investment in the design of the kitchen can be quite considerable (and immediately). However, such inconvenience can be regarded as temporary.
About radiation
Does the induction cooker produce harmful radiation? This statement is the main "horror story" about the harm of this device. Consumers can calm down - food cooked in an induction cooker is not radioactive. The strength of the vortex electromagnetic fields produced by the operation of induction plates is quite small, and the eddy currents themselves are locally limited by the body and device of the device. Even at a distance of only 30 cm from the plate, the effect of the field can be considered zero. Food does not become radioactive. In general, if the induction cooker is correctly installed by a specialist (including grounding), then there is no special risk in using it, of course, if all the rules of operation of this device are observed.
On electromagnetic fields
Many scientists argue about how harmful the electromagnetic fields created by various household appliances. Perhaps in all these opinions and arguments there are also rational grains, and this is not just speculative talk. Of course, it is up to the consumer to decide for himself what to prepare and what devices to use. There is a certain risk for people with implanted pacemakers, and this, of course, should be known when choosing and operating an induction cooker. The fact that the generated electromagnetic vortex flows can affect the operation of implanted pacemakers (people with such devices should not approach the operating induction plate for a distance closer than half a meter).
On the positive qualities of induction cookers
Induction cookers have their own advantages. First, faster cooking. Secondly, energy saving, ease and ease of care, as well as the inability to get burned. In addition, a special "booster" mode of operation is remarkable for cooking on several burners - you can transfer the power of the burner to the next one. Summing up, we can say that the induction cooker is dangerous not more than many other household appliances, which we constantly use. Naturally, to ensure the safety of any devices, you must follow the rules of their operation. And yet, by running the induction cooker into the operating mode, it's worth moving away and doing something else, and it's better to leave the kitchen altogether.
