We often use aluminium foil or butter paper to pack food during travel or office. But have you ever wondered what effect it has on our health? We often think that wrapping food in it keeps the food warm and healthy, but is food packing paper good for health?
Aluminum foil is harmful for health
Actually, aluminium foil is good for packing food but recently a research has come out about it which has surprised people. According to the ‘International Journal of Electrochemical Science Aluminium Foil’, aluminium foil is very harmful for health. It oxidises food particles. Which can also cause many diseases. Now the question arises that which of the two is better?
There is fear of this disease
According to the ‘International Journal of Electrochemical Science Aluminum Foil’, how good is aluminum foil for cooking or packing food. When we pack hot and vitamin C rich food in aluminum foil, the fear of leaching increases. Actually, what happens is that food rich in vitamin C gets oxidized due to packing in aluminum foil. Due to this, the amount of aluminum in the body starts increasing. This causes a lot of damage to the brain and bones.
Is butter paper more or aluminium foil?
Butter paper is known as wrapping paper or sandwich paper. It is better than aluminum foil. Actually, butter paper is like a non-stick paper, it contains paper made of cellulose. It is used in hotels and sweet shops. Which prevents moisture. It also absorbs extra oil in food. Therefore, it is considered better for health.
