The kitchen is one of the most important places in life, but in the kitchen, the functions and roles of various kitchen utensils are different, and scientific use is very important. Otherwise, it will not only be useless but also harmful.
Aluminum has very active chemical properties and is easily oxidized to form aluminum oxide films in air. Aluminum oxide film is insoluble in water, but can dissolve in acidic or alkaline solutions. Salt can also destroy aluminum oxide. If soup and vegetables are stored in aluminum containers for a long time, not only will the aluminum products be damaged, but also more aluminum molecules will dissolve into the soup and vegetables. These aluminum molecules undergo chemical changes with food to form aluminum compounds.
Long term consumption of foods containing a large amount of aluminum and aluminum compounds can disrupt the normal calcium to phosphorus ratio in the human body, affecting the growth, development, and metabolism of bones and teeth. It can also affect the activity of certain digestive enzymes and weaken the digestive function of the stomach. So, aluminum pots should avoid serving food for too long. It is best not to use aluminum pots to stir fry dishes or cook soup.
