Nuke That Microwave
Oven! By Tony Isaacs
Toss the microwave ovens - the sooner
the better! I would imagine that most of us have seen warnings
about using microwave ovens for some time. The first ones I recall
were way back in the radical seventies, when I learned that our
standards for allowable microwaves were 100's of times less stringent
than the world leading authorities in microwaves - the Soviet
Union (the same folks that constantly bombarded our embassy in
Moscow with microwaves). I also read reports that the incidence
of cataracts among microwave users was alarmingly high - especially
those that stood close to the microwave while it was in operation.
And what made the cataracts really stand out was that they were
"anterior cataracts" which formed further within the
eye than normal cataracts which formed near the lens surface.
Hard to miss the connection with microwave ovens, which cook food
from the inside out.
Dr. Edward Fujimoto (manager of the
Wellness Program) at the Castle hospital was on a TV program explaining
this health hazard. He was talking about dioxins and how bad they
are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in
the microwave using plastic containers.
This applies to foods that contain
fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat and plastics
releases dioxins into the food and ultimately into the cells of
the body. Dioxins are carcinogens and highly toxic to the cells
of our bodies. Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware,
or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results,
without the dioxins.
So such things as TV dinners, instant
ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and
heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what
is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning
Ware, etc. He said we might remember when some of the fast food
restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The
dioxin problem is one of the reasons.
To add to this, Saran wrap placed
over foods as they are nuked, with the high heat, actually drips
poisonous toxins into the food, use paper towels.
Pass this on to your family &
friends & those that are important in your life.
I had heard those warnings before,
at least the ones about dioxins from the plastic. For proof that
microwaves do something to plastic, just cook a dinner a bit longer
than recommended and see where the plastic melts and turns to
some kind of slag, and also mixes in with your food! Of look at
some of your old Tupperware so-called microwavable dishes that
have been used a long time and look at the mottled and dimpled
surfaces where repeated zapping has altered the plastic. What
I had not seen before though was the warning about freezing water
bottles.
After getting this latest warning,
I decided to not just put my blinders on and continue making carcinogens.
I thought, OK, I will just use corning ward or tempered glass.
Just to make sure, I did some checking on microwaves. What I found
was startling!
To put it quite simply, whereas traditional
cooking heats food with temperature and cooks food from the outside
in, micro waved food is cooked from the inside out by bombarding
the food with microwaves. Furthermore, microwaving alters food
and creates chemical compounds that the human body has not evolved
or adapted to handle.
I found that scientific clinical
studies had been conducted by the Russians (THE microwave authorities)
the Swiss and the Germans. In some instances these studies have
been suppressed by industry, particularly where industry had charges
brought against a researcher in Switzerland, and, after initially
having the researcher convicted, fined and given a gag order,
industry lost on appeal and had to pay the researcher for damages.
Here are the consensus conclusions
of the studies conducted in the three countries:
1). Continually eating food processed
from a microwave oven causes long term - permanent - brain damage
by "shorting out" electrical impulses in the brain [de-polarizing
or de-magnetizing the brain tissue].
2). The human body cannot metabolize
[break down] the unknown by-products created in micro waved food.
3). Male and female hormone production
is shut down and/or altered by continually eating micro waved
foods.
4). The effects of micro waved food
by-products are residual [long term, permanent] within the human
body.
5). Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients
of all micro waved food is reduced or altered so that the human
body gets little or no benefit, or the human body absorbs altered
compounds that cannot be broken down.
6). The minerals in vegetables are
altered into cancerous free radicals when cooked in microwave
ovens.
7). Micro waved foods cause stomach
and intestinal cancerous growths [tumors]. This may explain the
rapidly increased rate of colon cancer in America.
8). The prolonged eating of micro
waved foods causes cancerous cells to increase in human blood.
9). Continual ingestion of micro
waved food causes immune system deficiencies through lymph gland
and blood serum alterations.
10). Eating micro waved food causes
loss of memory, concentration, emotional instability, and a decrease
of intelligence."
Perhaps instead of thinking of the
minutes we save from the microwaves, we should think of the years
and the nutrition we may be losing! My suggestion: if you want
to save time, try a good convection oven. Whatever you cook with,
do not overcook. It costs nutrients and causes carcinogens, even
in foods besides meats.
