QUOTE(kshen @ Feb 3 2015, 03:57 PM) Lol just use it. It's not like it's a tiny Chernobyl cooking box or whatsoever filled with uranium 238 with the half life of 4.5 billion years . Have you checked on any research that discredited claims of carcinogenic potential / quality of the microwaved food, not from residual radiation in food or retention of nutrients, but due to 'changes in compounds in food' as mentioned by Manlet? Assuming it's on the same level of potential harm as a BBQ, would you still consume it everyday? The recommendation is already in place to limit exposure to BBQ foods.

Honestly , i haven't find any journals yet regarding the points you mentioned. However. I stumbled upon 2 of these journals. Haven't viewed through the entire journal yet, I've just read the abstract only. But hey, here's what I've found. You'll have to download the entire journal though (it's in PDF). Perhaps it'll help in our discussion? http://iopscience.iop.org/0952-4746/21/3/303/refshttp://m.iopscience.iop.org/0952-4746/12/3...46_12_3_003.pdfTo answer your 2nd question, everyday ? No. Well, my family have been using our currently oven for now (I've even meal prep them by grilling my food) . Currently no signs of abnormal changes during our medical checkup. Perhaps it may not appear yet or maybe it will soon . Who knows . Lol

We're trying to determine the carcinogenic properties of food after being microwaved - not due to residual radiation content in food, and certainly not due to decreased nutrition levels - but about what Manlet described as 'changes to food compound'.

Well...my apologies. Since it does not relate to what I've said. I'm sure the journal is somewhere lol . Good luck.

QUOTE(DT1 @ Feb 3 2015, 02:52 AM) Amount of radiation in food is not the matter here. How about the assertions in the following article? Questions on his credibility aside, was wondering if any of the assertions / sources quoted in his article have been refuted? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mercola/m...r_b_684662.htmllol............all the links goes back to his website........ and check out the references at his website.......hmm either it is non-existant or brought out of context or from dubious sites...... meh..........what a disappointment
