Induction cooktops do produce electromagnetic radiation, but the type of radiation they emit is different from the harmful ionizing radiation associated with sources like X-rays or nuclear radiation. The radiation from induction cooktops is non-ionizing, which means it doesn't have enough energy to cause damage to cells or DNA.
Induction cooktops use electromagnetic fields to heat the cookware directly, and this process generates electromagnetic radiation in the form of radio waves. The radiation is confined to the immediate vicinity of the cooktop and does not spread or pose any health risks to people using the appliance.
It's important to note that induction cooktops are considered safe to use when used properly and according to the manufacturer's instructions. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other health organizations have assessed the safety of induction cooktops and concluded that they do not pose any significant health hazards due to the non-ionizing nature of the radiation they emit.
