If you're wondering: 'is aluminum cookware safe to cook with?', you’re not alone. Aluminum is a favorite among product designers for being a lightweight, affordable conductor of heat.

As the kitchen appliances editor at Homes & Gardens, it’s my job to test and research the most effective, safest and best non-toxic cookware on the market. To separate fact from fear, I’ve consulted medical experts, toxicologists, and professional chefs to get a clearer picture of aluminum’s place in a healthy kitchen – and to help you decide whether it deserves a place in yours.
