Induction cooker is a commonly used household appliance. Using an induction cooker to cook food in daily life is a very common thing. However, many people believe that induction cookers emit high levels of radiation, and if pregnant women use induction cookers, it may affect their health. In fact, any electrical appliance will emit radiation, and the same goes for induction cookers. Relatively speaking, appliances with higher power will emit more radiation, while those with lower power will emit less radiation.
The radiation of an induction cooker is affected by power. If the power is high, the radiation is relatively large because the induction cooker converts low-frequency AC power into high-frequency AC power during operation, and then generates a high-power electromagnetic field through the coil. This magnetic field is then used to generate heat energy and heat food. During this process, radiation diverges outward.
Some mothers have stopped using induction cookers since pregnancy due to concerns about their adverse effects on the body. Actually, does an induction cooker really have an impact on pregnant mothers? What should expectant mothers pay attention to when using it?
Induction cookers emit radiation, but the radiation from induction cookers is only one sixtieth of that from mobile phones, and most of the radiation comes from the bottom of the pot because the alternating electromagnetic field is formed in the coil during induction cooker operation, which is located above the panel and below the pot bottom. So, pregnant mothers don't need to worry about the significant impact of radiation on their bodies.
But to avoid adverse situations, pregnant women should pay attention when using induction cookers. Firstly, stay away from the induction cooker, because the farther away from the emission source, the lower the possibility of radiation exposure; Secondly, cooking is faster because shortening cooking time means reducing the time spent standing next to the induction cooker, making it less susceptible to radiation; Thirdly, reduce the frequency of use and try to avoid unnecessary harm caused by electromagnetic radiation.
Induction cookers do have a certain amount of radiation, but their radiation is not as high as that of computers. Most of the radiation comes from the bottom of the pot, so pregnant women using induction cookers have no effect at all. If you are still worried about the impact, you can shorten the cooking time and stay away from the induction cooker when cooking.
