We’ve been discussing leaching of metals that occurs from different types of cookware.

I received from the makers of Xtrema Cookware a lab report showing heavy metal leaching from various types of cookware.

The following are the highest numbers on the tests:

seasoned cast iron skillet – 2817 mg/L iron
speckled metal bakeware – 35 mg/L aluminum
enamel cast iron skillet – 25 mg/L aluminum

Take a look. Amounts of heavy metals leached are compared to acceptable levels of the various metals in drinking water standards.

This test did not include stainless steel.
