The main hazard of stainless steel pressure cooker lies in its possible heavy metal release. When unqualified stainless steel pot is used, some of its compounds may be dissolved, such as chromium.
When people ingest these compounds for many times, they may accumulate slowly in the body, and when they reach a certain limit, they may endanger human health. In particular, hexavalent chromium is listed as one of the chemicals harmful to human body and one of the internationally recognized carcinogenic metals. Therefore, when choosing a pressure cooker, we must ensure its quality.
