DO MICROWAVES CAUSE CANCER MICROWAVING DANGEROUS OR SAFE:
Let’s begin with how microwaves actually cook your food: In a nutshell, microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation that is easily absorbed by water, fat and sugar. This makes them move around and that movement helps to heat up the food.
Now I know what you’re thinking. As soon as you hear the word radiation, you might think radioactivity. But don’t panic - microwaves don’t even come close to nuclear bombs! The length and frequency of microwaves are actually very close to the radio waves you use to connect to your wifi and to use your phone to send a text or make a phone call. Even light is electromagnetic radiation, so microwave radiation is not harmful.
This is because microwaves are easily absorbed and blocked by the inside of the microwave oven so they can’t escape. Just don’t stand within 30cm of the microwave or have your head or face right next to it to prevent any radiation getting to you.
This is unlike UV rays in sunlight which are short, high frequency wavelengths that can damage your skin cell DNA and cause skin cancer. Speaking of which, there is no evidence that cooking your food in a microwave causes cancer.
BURNT FOOD AND ACRYLAMIDE:
In the video I discuss the cooking principles for preservation of nutrients and minerals. You don’t want to cook your food using too much heat. And a microwave is perfect for that! You are a lot less likely to char or burn your food in a microwave than other cooking methods. So you can preserve even more vitamins and nutrients.
It also means you’re less likely to get the formation of burnt food bits which contain acrylamide. Kind of like burnt toast or burnt chips. There is some evidence that acrylamide might cause cancer. If you want to read more about acrylamide - www.nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well...

I notice when I used to open the microwave before it stopped I felt a sense of losing consciousness for a second as I opened it. Weird.

[@george6977]

If you can open the microwave door before it stops cooking then your appliance is faulty.

[@NeuromagicHK]

FYI you should get yourself a Radio Frequency meter and measure your microwave before dispensing advice like keeping 30cm away. Totally unsafe at that distance. You are repeating the deliberate falsehoods of the telecomms industry. At 30cm, our Hitachi microwave measures an extreme level of 250,000 microwatts/meter2. This is 250x the Building Biology Evaluation Guidelines Extreme level minimum (>1,000). And 25x the minimum Severe level (10-1,000). I have to get over 6 meters away to get down to 100. I used an accurate quality Safe & Sound Pro II RF meter. Also, magnetic fields from microwave ovens are actually more damaging (yes, cancer!). Using an AphaLab UHS2 Milligauss meter I get the following readings: 30cm from oven front = 75 millGauss (mG) = 37x-75x recommended safe level of 1-2 mG Head (meter) up close to door watching food! = 325 mG = 160x-325x safe level. 3 meters away from oven = 1mG and quite safe!!! : ) I still use the microwave at times and simply leave kitchen while it runs. No need to dump it, but take good safety precautions when using.

[@LetsRUMBLEAQ3D]

Your Closed Captioning is a bit funky on this, may I ask if you could look into that? Particularly starting at 1:48

[@owa2533]

Keep a safe distance but eat what comes out of it.

[@tracyonyenwe6062]

This is where I'm confused 😅 how are we sure what's coming out from what you said I should stay away from is safe to eat? I really need the truth cos I got a microwave this year and it makes warming up things very quick and easy but I don't want to cause myself and my family harm because something seems 'easy'

[@jrgarza1964]

Nah.. I still don't trust using microwaves, I still use the conventional oven. And the food cooks way better in the oven anyway.

Could radiation from microwave oven cause cancer if skin is exposed to it. So UV Rays and microwave are different things. For me it was hard to decern some how.

[@danielledewitt1]

Please can you do a video on those little downright painful things we call blisters? I have 2 one on each foot on the flat of each foot and the same place as my feet are awkward things. I took the offending sandles off just in time as they’ve left me with painful sores that were very nearly full blown blisters and I can’t put my feet down at all because they hurt.

[@AbrahamThePharmacist]

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll add it to the list of video ideas!

[@gamingdomination4124]

You said - keep distance from microwave .... And phones also use microwaves so i was wondering , will it cause health hazards if i used phones too much? Moreover i had an old phone which (after dropping it from stairs) whenever i used it , it caused headache ... I got rid of that phone but now the same thing happened to my phone (after so many years). Although the intensity of this is much less as i recognise . Am i right ? Does it cause any hazards ? Or its just me thinking too much , or something , as someone told me ... Will be glad to gear from you if you reply .. or anyone replies ...

[@wardahimtiaz9112]

Yes radiations from phones are not good for health.. one of my friends had cancer and calling on cell phones increased his pain

[@romeowandrainbow1040]

If it’s not dangerous, then why advise to stand 30 cm away from them. Don’t trust them at all

[@darkangel13915]

But I love the burnt toast and chips🥺

[@kristyfae]

Thanks for the info, I've been worried about microwaves for years and looking for the right info. I'm still confused about why it's safe to eat food that's come out of the microwave, but it's not safe to stand too close to it? Could you explain! If the radiation goes into the molecules to heat them, how does it not transfer to our bodies? I am not a science person at all- just a health conscious person looking for info! Thank you :D

[@spacewolf363]

MIcrowaves produce microwaves with a specific lenght so they vibrate only water molecules in order to heat up the food. Your body also have water, that's why you shouldn't get too close because it could heat your own water. There is nothing more in the food after microwaving it. Just less water and other things that boiled out.

[@j.s3612]

Think of it like vibrator that can shake the atoms of water. The vibration causes it to get hot . The only thing leftover after the Vibration has stopped is heat .

[@charlesg7926]

Microwaves travel at the speed of light. They do not remain in the food

[@pablomills1901]

Please do microwave causes male infertility?.

[@Ruleta]

After they heat that energy is lost, as it what transfered to heat, radiation is over when the microwave rings.

Omg your a mind reader. I literally heard someone say don't microwave food beyond 5 Mins as it will cause cancer 🙈. And now I microwave under 3 mins 😅

It's a great topic Joseph, there's a lot of misinformation on it so hope it helps :)

[@winkfinkerstien1957]

My wife and I have been using the microwave for at least 30 years and we are still alive and well! 🙂 We like to use it to cook acorn squash, butternut squash and spaghetti squash; reheating leftovers, soups, sliced cooked meats such as turkey, beef, chicken and tamales on New Years. Just saying... we're living proof after 30 years of use. 🙂

do you not understand that the food when is touched by radiation does NOT become radioactive. But radiation harms you. FUN FACT: the food you eat in packet with a well known company were exposed to UV rays (A very harmful radiation which is bad for you) to kill the bacteria's (because they also die when exposed to UV rays). I hope you understand this, if any doubts ask.
