Doctor Reveals 3 Common Household Items You Should Discard for Better Health
Health Expert Warns Against Common Household Items Dr. Sethi, a renowned gut and liver specialist with training from Harvard and Stanford, has issued a public warning regarding three prevalent household items that he identifies as potentially toxic. In a recent video, Dr. Sethi urged viewers to "throw out ASAP" regular scented candles, plastic cutting boards, and scratched non-stick pans due to their potential health risks. According to Dr. Sethi, many scented candles contain phthalates, which are known to disrupt hormones, and paraffin wax, which can release harmful soot and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) when burned. He advises consumers to opt for safer alternatives such as unscented soy, coconut, or beeswax candles. The second item on his list is plastic cutting boards. Dr. Sethi explained that "knife marks can shed tiny plastic particles into your food," a risk that "builds up over years of use." For a safer kitchen, he recommended switching to well-maintained wood or bamboo boards, while also noting that glass boards, though hygienic, can quickly dull knives. Lastly, Dr. Sethi highlighted the dangers of scratched or chipped non-stick pans. He pointed out that "older pans often use PFOA, which is linked to reproductive and hormonal issues." Even modern PFOA-free pans are not entirely safe once damaged, as "scratches can still release microscopic coating particles plus any additives trapped inside." He suggested stainless steel, cast iron, or pure ceramic cookware as superior and safer options for cooking. The expert concluded by encouraging viewers to share his advice widely to spread awareness about these common household hazards.
