A high school student asked me yesterday whether cooking with gas has any effects beyond respiratory disease:
"EEGs were recorded before and during cooking (14 min) and 30 min after the cooking sessions. The brain fast-wave band (beta) decreased during exposure, similar to people with neurodegenerative diseases."
Again,
"similar to people with neurodegenerative diseases"

Human exposure to aerosol from indoor gas stove cooking and the resulting nervous system responses - PubMed
Our knowledge of the effects of exposure to indoor ultrafine particles (sub-100 nm, #/cm<sup>3</sup> ) on human brain activity is very limited. The effects of cooking ultrafine particles (UFP) on healthy adults were assessed using an electroencephalograph (EEGs) for brain response. Peak ultrafine pa …
