Hi While an aluminum pressure cooker cooks faster, it is generally accepted that a stainless steel pressure cooker produces higher quality food. Safety: A stainless steel pressure cooker is heavier than an aluminum pressure cooker, but with care when cooking, anyone can find both of them safe to use.

It is not harmful if you cook in a pressure cooker because of intense heat inside. Plus after cooking we take out and keep in other vessel. All mental diseases are very rare it does not affect everybody.

Hello, I had an accident in 2012 and fractured my jaw. Due to that I have to undergo an operation and have an aluminium plate in my jaw. From Nov 2015, I started with problem of acne/pimple breakouts. As I have a very healthy diet and I don't ever skip my Gym session and quiet rarely have outside junk food. So my question is, whether is there any relation between aluminium plate and acne breakouts? As its been 4 long years from 2012 to 2016 they are embedded in my jaw.

No sir please dont get confused with all these unwanted thoughts. There is no way a relationship between your acne problem and the aluminium plate. Mostly oily skin bearers will have acne problems in common

Hi, I have come to know that aluminium foil is not good for health because it reacts when food is hot and high amount of aluminium is not good so if it's really bad then why they are so popular for wrapping and storing food. I have started wrapping food in brown paper bag for my daughter for her lunch box but is there any other better option for wrapping food which is fully hygienic and healthy too for daily use in kitchen also.

Dear Ms. lybrate-user, You are right in pointing out that we should avoid cooking food altogether and wrapping hot, spicy or acidic food in aluminium foil as far as possible due to its leaching effect. Cold food however can be packed for short duration. You get 'Food Wrapping Paper Rolls' these days to wrap and heat food which are good. Also you could use stainless steel tiffins / containers or tiffin boxed with glass lining to pack food for your child.

Don't take them daily. Choose natural methods. Here are some home remedies to cure acidity.  - Skip the aerated drinks as well as the caffeine. Opt for herbal tea instead.  - Have a glass of lukewarm water everyday.  - Include banana, watermelon and cucumber in your daily diet. Watermelon juice is great for curing acidity.  - Nariyal paani is known to soothe the system if you suffer from acidity.  - Drink a glass of milk - everyday.  - Have your last meal at least two to three hours before you hit the sack.  - Keeping long intervals between meals is another cause for acidity. Have small but regular meals.  - Try to avoid pickles, spicy chutneys, vinegar, etc.  - Boil some mint leaves in water and have a glass of this after meals.
