9 cooking mistakes that can make your food more toxic

It might taste downright delicious, but consuming deep-fried food regularly isn’t good for your health. “The act of frying turns otherwise healthy foods, like vegetables and lean meats, into unhealthy, trans-fat-laden treats,” says dietitian Jeanette Kimszal. If you can’t shake your fried food obsession, Kimszal suggests purchasing an air fryer. This device requires no or only a small amount of oil to cook your food, so you can still enjoy your favourite foods without extra fat that could possibly hurt your health.
