Greencookingpots provides eco friendly "green" cookware. Our pots are a great alternative to potentially toxic cookware. When heated, Teflon emits toxic particles and gasses, linked to countless human health illnesses. Aluminum cookware has raised health concerns due to its effect on the human nervous system and is linked to Alzheimer's Disease. Stainless steel contains both chromium and nickel, (the 18/8 stainless referring to the percentage of each element contained). Both of these substances in the form they are used to make stainless steel are considered toxic to humans, causing a wide range of adverse health effects. The question is how much leaching occurs, but recognizing the increased toxicity levels of our everyday lives, cooking with greencookingpots is an easy choice, and simple way to live healthier.

Proper care of your Greencookingpots will ensure a lifetime of use. It is best to use low to medium heat with your pot. Clean up is easy when using a non-abrasive sponge and warm soapy water. You can remove any stubborn bits by bringing a little soap with water to simmer for a few minutes. Also a little lemon juice will lighten any stains. Over time some enamel chipping may occur, but this will not affect the quality or performance of your pots. If this occurs you can rub a little oil on the chips to prevent them from rusting. But know that these show the use and love of your cookware and speak of all the wonderful meals you've shared with your family and friends.
