Here's a source that references induction stovetops specifically: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22674188/ For a more comprehensive treatment on the health and ecological consequences I'd recommend The Invis

It is really disappointing to me to see a comments section most glorifying induction stovetops because of how much “healthier” they are. They win on energy efficiency, but I think the argument over health is less clear cut. Consider that in

It probably doesn’t interfere with cellular function, but that doesn’t mean it has no impact on your health. EMFs at virtually all ranges of artificial (and natural) magnitudes have been shown to cause a vast variety of health problems. The
