Ozeri Stone Frying Pan 100% APEO PFOA Free Non-Stick Coating German Made

Utilizing a custom-formulated stone-derived coating from Germany the Stone Frying Pan by Ozeri reigns with its ability to deliver non-stick perfection while remaining absolutely free of toxic substances such as APEO GenX fluorinated PFBS PFOS PFOA and the lesser known NMP and NEP. According to the FDA many of these constitute a worrisome class of nonstick and stain-resistant compounds that have found their way into the food chain including grocery store meats and seafood. A federal toxicology report has linked a number of health concerns to the presence of these compounds in people s blood. Although the harmful acid PFOA and to a certain extent PFOS have been generally phased out of production non-stick coatings today are often made with the aid of a generation of advanced fluoropolymers known as GenX fluorinated and PFBS. According to EPA studies on these the data are suggestive of cancer and when orally consumed these may be capable of affecting the kidneys blood immune system liver and developing fetuses. Also of concern are APEO (Alkylphenol ethoxylates) which are under restricted use in Germany due to environmental concerns and toxicity in the food chain. Labelled forever due to their poor degradability and tendency to accumulate in people s bodies the EPA and FDA have cited consistent studies of people exposed to many of these compounds that suggest associations with several kinds of cancers liver problems low birth weight and other issues concluding that many of these compounds are more dangerous than previously thought. By not using these fluorinated the Stone Frying Pans German-made coating stands ahead of the curve achieving the highest marks for food safety and environmental health. In addition the Stone Frying Pan uses an inert coating that is applied using a water-based Sol Gel Technique which is also free of the lesser known but potentially harmful NMP (N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone)
