Someone is cooking in the room, and the whole room smells of oil smoke. Sleeping at night smells of oil smoke. Oil smoke is too strong, is it carcinogenic? Is it bad for your health?

In our traditional families in China, housewives inhale more kitchen fumes, and related epidemiological studies have also found that female lung cancer is related to inhaling kitchen fumes. Experts have studied and analyzed the oil smoke extract produced by frying pork with salad oil, and found that DNP (Nitro Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Essence) is the main carcinogen in the oil smoke produced by this substance, which is also the carcinogen of lung cancer. The DNP inhaled by housewives when preparing a meal in the kitchen is more than 100 times that of outdoor fresh air. Another harmful gas is carbon monoxide. It mainly comes from insufficient fuel combustion and cooking fumes. Due to the sudden increase in the production of nitrogen oxides in the process of kitchen fuel combustion, a large number of harmful substances are produced, which further aggravates indoor air pollution. Inhalation can cause lung diseases, asthma, tracheitis, emphysema and other diseases, which may lead to pulmonary fibrosis in severe cases. A cancer research center in the United States recently pointed out that the main reason for the high proportion of women suffering from lung cancer in China is the environmental pollution in the kitchen.
