Gas Stoves: The Hidden Health Risk?

Turns out, that gas stove in your kitchen could be doing more harm than you think. A new Stanford study says gas and propane stoves are a major source of indoor air pollution, spiking nitrogen dioxide to dangerous levels and even releasing cancer-linked chemicals like benzene. The risks? Higher chances of asthma, lung cancer, and diabetes—especially for kids. Switching to electric or using good ventilation can help cut the risk. Who knew cooking dinner could be this risky? #Health #BodyHealth #HealthAlert
