Call for ban on non-stick chemicals.

Call for ban on non-stick chemicals. :

"But ABC Radio's The World Today program has obtained a copy of an official Australian Government report showing this country has the second highest recorded levels of the chemicals behind the United States.

There are now calls for the Australian Government to ban the chemicals immediately.

Teflon and other non-stick substances use a type of chemical called perfluorochemicals and they are also used to make stain-resistant clothing and a host of other domestic products."

Now they tell us. Hadn't they studied the effects when they were testing them? Does it apply to the silverstone cookware as well? If we revert to the old things...which were mostly aluminium based didn't they rust and give us Alzheimers? If we have very high levels of these chemicals in our blood why wasn't it discovered before and what are other countries using so they don't get these chemicals? The US is ahead of us but we are second. Not a a race I wish to win, nor have a placing in. Now be kind enough to identify clearly the bad things and the things I should use.
