Are AIR FRYERS UNSAFE to use?! Acrylamide and...CANCER?! | ASK A DIETITIAN

A lot of recent info sharing everywhere stating air fryers are unhealthy, unsafe and to some extent, have cancer causing compound in food cooked in an air fryer.

But is this fact or just gimmicky headlines with information blown out of proportion?

DISCLAIMER:
The info provided in the video are summarized and simplified to reach a bigger audience. I encourage everyone to read up more on acrylamide, the EPA, lethal dose and how to safeguard yourself.
