Decupaje: Can Microwave Ovens Cause Cancer?

Many of you, if not all of you probably have a microwave oven in your
home. It's convenient, and heats our food quickly. What's there to worry
about? Well, I for one have not been using a microwave owen for more
than a year, since I learned the potential dangers of it. It pains me to
see all these commercials and marketing campaigns tell you that you need
one, when in reality you don't. They are dangerous, and can cause severe
illnesses and health diseases. The people who sell you these devices
tell you there is little to no danger in using a microwave. However,
recently, more and more people are discovering how harmful microwaves
can be to your health, and well being. So, how do microwaves work? Good
question. The microwave is a pretty simple device. Inside the oven,
there is a tube, called the magnetron that creates a power field. When
you heat food inside, the molecules in your food (as well as other
substances such as fats, and protein) are aligned with the electric
field, and oscillate around its axis. This in turn generates tremendous
friction, which results in heat. This heat is what makes your food
hotter. The heating essentially takes place from the outside to inside.
This is very different from what it used to be.In the past, heating used
to take place outside, and slowly moved inside. How dangerous are
microwaves? The dangerous effects of heating stuff in microwaves have
been known for awhile now. The Russians did some research in the early
90's and they came up with some hefty security procedures. Ameriacns
however didn't heeded these warnings, and continued to use dangerous
levels of heating in their microwaves. There have been several hearings,
but in the end not much has been done to warn people about the health
dangers microwave owens pose. When you heat food quickly, it leads to an
uneven distribution of heat in your food. There are spots that are ice
cold, and others that are hot. No big deal, you may say, but this means
that bacteria and harmful germs are not being killed properly. A
Potential Cause of Cancer? Sometimes we may not have enough time, and
using the microwave may be okay in few isntances. But eating microwaved
food day after day will cause a lot harm in the long-term. One of these
days, people will realize how harmful it is to heat their food, and
realize it is slowly killing their body. We may save a little time, but
in the end we are just damaging our cells and our body.
