The Truth About What’s Inside The Cooking Spray


When cooking spray first came into the scene, everyone was relived about how it is going to bring a revolution in the healthcare scene. I mean, who wouldn’t want to be able to eat everything without worrying about the calories?! But behind those tall claims of less calorie consumption, the actual picture is totally different from the actual reality.

How A Cooking Spray works?

 

It does cooks food in less oil, but the mechanism behind this entire less-oil-low-calorie concept is something which we haven’t heard about yet! Most of the cooking sprays use aerosol technology which dispenses oil in the spray form.  Aerosol sprays contain propellants under pressure which creates a mist of particles. When the spray is knob is pressed, the pressure forces the propellant pushes the liquid outside the can in the form of very fine mist.

Are there any side effects?

There continuous usage can cause skin irritations, difficulty in breathing etc. They can also cause burn injuries if sprayed directly on the skin.

What’s the solution?

The good news is, there is another aerosol technology, a cleaner and healthier version of the one mentioned above which uses BOV (Bag On Valve) technique.
            What is Bag On Valve technique?
·         The concept of bag-on-valve technology is the combination of an airless one-way valve system and modern barrier pouch packaging. The Oil is in a secured four layered Bag, which is neither exposed to light, air or atmosphere. Thus, keeping it absolutely pure and secured.
·         The four layered Bag creates a barrier that prevents interaction between the product and the environment. This means oxygen, dust, contamination, light, mechanical impact, gas and moisture are not exposed to the product. The result is a protected and sterile product.
·         This helps keeping product pure and fresh without adding preservatives.
The second technique if implemented properly can definitely bring a change in the healthcare scene and can prove to a blessing for all those people who are genuinely looking for a healthier options and ways.
