Microwaves what you don't know is hurting you.
The Hidden Dangers of Microwave Cooking
Recent research shows that microwave oven-cooked food suffers severe molecular damage. When eaten, it causes abnormal changes in human immune systems. Not surprisingly, the public has been denied details on significant health dangers.
Back in May of 1989, after Tom Valentine first moved to St Paul, Minnesota~Heard the car radio and a short announcement that bolted him upright in the driver's seat ...announcement was sponsored by Young Families, the Minnesota Extension of the University of Minnesota:
"Although microwaves heat food quickly, they are not recommended for heating a baby's bottle," the announcement said. The bottle may seem cool to the touch, but the liquid inside may become extremely hot and could burn the baby's mouth and throat. Also, the buildup of steam in a closed container such as a baby's bottle could cause it to explode.
"Heating the bottle in a microwave can cause slight changes in the milk infant formulas, there may be a loss of some vitamins. In expressed breast milk, some protective properties may be destroyed." Also, to thaw milk is an especially bad idea, since it is likely to boil some of the milk before it has even liquified. Stanford University Medical Center no longer microwaves babies formula's, Kerner notes. And that's appropriate, Sigman-Grant believes, because of the high volumes of milk that hospitals typically serve newborns-especially premature infants.
The report went on: "Warming a bottle by holding it under tap water or by setting it in a bath of warm water, then testing it on your wrist before feeding, may take a few minutes longer, but it is much safer."
A Lawsuit
In early 1991, word leaked out about a lawsuit in Oklahoma. A woman named Levitt had hip surgery, only to be killed by a simple blood transfusion when they "warmed the blood for the transfusion in a microwave oven"! Logic suggests the heating or cooking is all there is to it, then it doesn't matter what mode of heat technology one uses. However, it is quite apparent that there is more to 'heating with microwaves than we've been led to believe. Blood for transfusions is routinely warmed but not in microwave ovens! In the case of Mrs. Levitt, the microwaving altered the blood and it killed her. Does it not therefore follow that this form of heating does do 'something different' to the substances being heated? Is it not prudent to find out what that 'something different1 might be? A funny thing happened on the way with all that microwave oven revenue: nobody thought about the obvious. We must begin to be aware of the value of quality nutrition and discern the use of microwave ovens and the widespread 'de-naturing' of
our food.
Enter Bans Hertel
In the tiny town of Wattenwil, near Basel in Switzerland, there lives a scientist alarmed at the lack of purity and naturalness in the many pursuits of modern research. He worked as a food scientist for several years with one of the many major SW companies that do business on a global scale. A few years ago, he was fired for questioning procedures in processing food because they denatured it. "The consumer needs our help," Hans Hertel told Tom Valentine as they shared a fine meal at hotel in Todtmoss, Germany. "We, the scientists, carry the main responsibility to present unacceptable conditions. It is therefore our job to correct the situation and offer the remedy to the world. I am striving to bring man and techniques back into being one with nature. We can have wonderful technologies without violating nature. "Hans an intense man, driven by personal knowledge of violations of nature by corporations his state-supported monopolies in science, technology and education. As the two talked, his intensity shattered into a warm smile and he spoke of how things could be if mankind's immense talent were to work with nature and not against her.
Hans Hertel is the first scientist to conceive of and carry out a quality study on effects of microwaved nutrients on the blood and physiology of human beings.
A well-controlled study pointed the firm finger at a degenerative force of microwave ovens and the food produced in them. The conclusion was clear: microwave ovens changed the nutrients so that changes took place in the participants' blood; these were not healthy changes but were changes that could cause deterioration in the human systems.
Working with Bernard H. Blanc of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology and University Institute for Biochemistry, Hertel not only conceived of the study and he was also one of eight participants."To control as many variables as possible he selected eight individuals who were strict macrobiotic diet participants from the Macrobiotic Institute at Kientel, Switzerland," Hertel explained. "We were all in the same hotel environment for eight weeks. There was no smoking, no alcohol or sex." One can readily see that this protocol makes sense. After all, how could we evaluate the subtle changes in a human's blood from eating microwaved food if smoke, booze, junk food, pollution, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics and everything else common environment were also present?" We had one American, one Canadian and Europeans in the group.
I was the oldest at 64 years, the others were in their 30s," Hertel added. Valentine published the results of this study in Spring of 1992. But the follow-up information is available only in a later edition also in Acres, USA. In intervals of two to five days, the volunteers in the study one of the food variants on an empty stomach. The food variants were: raw milk biofarm (no. 1); the same milk conventionally cooked (no. 2); pasteurized milk Berne (no. 3); the same raw milk cooked in a microwave oven (no.4 )vegetables from an organic farm (no. 5); the same vegetables cooked convent (no. 6); the same vegetables frozen and defrosted in the microwave oven (no.7) the same vegetables cooked in the microwave oven (no. 8). The overall expert some of the earmarks of the Pottenger cat studies, except that now human beings test objects, the experiment's time-frame was shorter, and a new heat form was tested. Once the volunteers were isolated at the resort hotel, the test began. Blood samples were taken from every volunteer immediately before eating.
Then blood samples were taken at defined intervals after eating from the above-numbered vegetable preparations. Significant changes were discovered in the blood of the volunteers who consumed foods cooked in the microwave oven. These change: a decrease in all hemoglobin values and cholesterol values, especially the HDL cholesterol) and LDL (bad cholesterol) values and ratio. Lymphocytes (white blood showed a more distinct short-term decrease following the intake of microwaved than after the intake of all the other variants. Each of these indicators point in direction away from robust health and toward degeneration. Additionally, there highly significant association between the amount of microwave energy in the and the luminous power of luminescent bacteria exposed to serum from test pi who ate that food. This led Hertel to the conclusion that such technically derive energies may, indeed, be passed along to man inductively via consumption of microwaved food.
'This process is based on physical principles and has already been confirmed in the literature," Hertel explained. The apparent additional energy exhibited by the luminescent bacteria was merely extra confirmation.
'There is extensive scientific literature concerning the hazardous effects direct microwave radiation on living systems,"the principle of alternating current. Atoms, molecules and cells hit by the hard electromagnetic radiation are forced to reverse polarity 1 to 100 billion times a second. There are no atoms, molecules or cells of any organic system able to withstand such a violent, destructive power for extended period of time, not even in the low energy range of milliwatts
"Of all the natural substances-which are polar-the oxygen of water molecules reacts most sensitively. This is how microwave cooking heat generated-friction from this violence in water molecules. Structures of molecules are torn apart, molecules are forcefully deformed (called structural isomerism) and thus become impaired in quality.
Heating
"This is contrary to conventional heating of food, in which heat transfer convectionally from without to within. Cooking by microwaves begins within the cells and molecules where water is present and where the energy is transformed into frictional heat." The question naturally arises: What about microwaves from the sun? Aren't they harmful? Hertel responded: "The microwaves from the Sun are based on principles of pi direct current. These rays create no frictional heat in organic substance" In addition to violent frictional heat effects (called thermic effects), there are a athermic effects which have hardly ever been taken into account, Hertel added:
''These athermic effects are not presently measurable, but they can also deform the structures of molecules and have qualitative consequences. For example, the weakening of cell membranes by microwaves is used in the field of gene altering technology. Because of the force involved, the cells are actually broken, thereby neutralizing the electrical potentials-very life of the cells-between the outer and inner sides of the cell membranes. Impaired cells become easy prey for viruses, fungi and other micro-organisms. The natural repair mechanisms are suppressed, and cells are forced to adapt to a state of energy emergency: they switch from aerobic to anaerobic respiration. Instead of water and carbon dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and carbon monoxide are produced." It has long been pointed out in the literature that any reversal of healthy cell may occur because of a number of reasons, and our cells then revert from a " oxidation" to an unhealthy "fermentation". The same violent friction and athermic deformations that can occur in our bodies when we are subjected to radar or microwaves, happens to the molecules in the food cooked in a microwave over when anyone microwaves food, the oven exerts a power input of about 1,000.
Curiously, neither established science nor our enviromental protective government has conducted tests-on the blood of the eaters-of the various kinds of cooked foods, Hertel and his group did test it, and it is clear that something is amiss and that larger studies should be funded. The toxic effects of microwave cooking is another in a long list of unnatural additive daily diets.
However, the establishment has not taken kindly to this work. "The drawing of blood samples took place on an empty stomach at 7:45 each morning Hertel explained. "The second drawing of blood took place 15 minutes after the intake. The third drawing was two hours later. "From each sample, 50 millimeters was used for the chemistry and five millimeters for the hematology and the luminescence. The hematological examinations took place immediately after drawing samples. Erythrocytes, hemoglobin, mean hemoglobin concentration, leukocytes and lymphocytes were measured. The chemical analysis cc iron, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol. The results of erythrocytes hemoglobin, haematocrit and leukocyte determinations were at the "lower limit of normal" in those tested following the eating of the microwaved samples.
''These results show anemic tendencies. The situation became even more pronounced during the second month of the study," Hertel added. "And with those decreased there was a corresponding increase of cholesterol values.
"Hertel admits that stress factors, from getting punctured for the blood samples each day, for example, cannot be ruled out, but the established baseline for these individual became the "zero values" marker, and only changes from the zero were statistically determined. With only one round of test substances completed, the effects between conventionally prepared food and microwaved food were marginal although noticed as definite "tendencies".
As the test continued, the difference blood markers became "statistically significant".
The changes are generally correlated with the signs of stress on the body. For example, erythrocytes tended to increase in vegetables from the microwave oven. Hemoglobin and both of the and content hemoglobin markers also tended to decrease significantly after each microwaved substances.
Leukocytosis
"Leukocytosis," Hertel explained, "which cannot be accounted for by normal data deviations such as following the intake of food, is taken seriously by hematologic Leukocyte response is especially sensitive to stress. They are often signs of pahogenic effects on the living system, such as poisoning and cell damage. The increase in leukocytes with the microwaved foods was more pronounced than with all the variants. It appears that these marked increases were caused entirely by microwaved substances.
"The cholesterol markers were very interesting, Hertel stressed:"Common science states that cholesterol values usually alter slowly over longer periods of time. One study, the markers increased rapidly after the consumption of the microwaved vegetables. However, with milk, the cholesterol values remained the same and decreased with the raw milk significantly.
"Hertel believes his study tends to confirm newer scientific data that suggest cholesterol may rapidly increase in the blood secondary to acute stress. "Also," he added, cholesterol levels are less influenced by cholesterol content of food than by standard factors. Such stress-causing factors can apparently consist of foods which contain virtually no cholesterol-the microwaved vegetables.
"It is plain to see that this individually financed and conducted study has enough to it to make anyone with a modicum of common sense sit up and take notice. For the microwave oven caused abnormal changes, representing stress, to occur in all the test of individuals. Biological individuality, a key variable that many allegedly scientific studies, was well accounted for by the established baseline: how has the brilliant world of modern technology, medicine and 'protect the government reacted to this impressive effort?
A Gag Order
As soon as Hertel and Blanc announced their results, the hammer of authority came down on them. A powerful trade organization, the Swiss Association of Dealers Electro apparatuses for Households and Industry, known simply as FEA, struck. They forced the President of the Court of Seftigen, Kanton Bern, to issue a 'gag order against Hertel and Blanc. The attack was so ferocious that Blanc quickly recanted support-but it was too late. He had already put into writing his views on the the studies where he concurred with the opinion that microwaved food caused abnormalities.
Hertel stood his ground, and today is steadfastly demanding his rights to a trial Preliminary hearings on the matter have been appealed to higher courts, and it obvious the powers that be do not want a 'show trial' to erupt on this issue. In 1993, the court handed down this decision based upon the complaint of the FEA: "Consideration.
Request from the plaintiff (FEA) to prohibit the defendant (Dr Hertel) from declaring that food prepared in the microwave oven shall be labled dangerous to health and lead to changes in the blood of consumers, giving reference to pathologic troubles as also indicative for the beginning of a cancerous process. The defendant shall be prohibited from repeating such a statement in publications and in public talks by punishment laid down the law.2. The jurisdiction of the judge is given according to law.3. The active legitimacy of the plaintiff is given according to the law.4.
The passive legitimacy of the defendant is given by the fact that he is the author of the polemic published study in question, especially since the present new and revised law allows to exclude the necessity of a competitive situation, therefore delinquents may also be persons who a not co-competitors, but may damage the competing position of others t mere declarations. Apparently, Swiss corporations have lobbied in a law that nails "delinquents" who disparage products and might do damage 1 commerce by such remarks. So far, the U.S. Constitution still preserves freedom of the press.5. Considering the relevant situation it is referred three publications: the public renunciation sic of the so-called co-authored. Professor Bernard Blanc, the expertise of
Professor Teuber expert witness from the FEA about the above-mentioned publication, the opinion of the public health authorities with regard to the present stage of research with microwave ovens as well as to repeated statements from the side of the defendant about the danger of such ovens.
It is not considered of importance whether or not the defendant meets the approval of the public, because all that is necessary is that a possibility exists that such a statement could find approval with people not being experts themselves. Also, advertising involving fear is not allowed and is always disqualified by the law. The necessity for interference is in no case more advised than in the processes of competition. Basically, the defendant has the right to defend himself against such accusations. This right, however, can be denied in cases of pressing danger with regard to impairing the rights of the plaintiff where this is requested.
Court Conclusion
On grounds of this pending request of the plaintiff, the court arrives at conclusion that because of special presuppositions as in this case, a definite disadvantage for the plaintiff does exist, which may not easily be repaired, and therefore must be considered to be of immediate danger. The case thus warrants the request of the plaintiff to be justified, even without hearing the defendant.
Also, because it is not known when the defendant will bring further statements into the public. The judge is also of the opinion that because the publications are made up to appear as scientific, and therefore especially reliable-looking, they may cause additional bad disadvantages. It must be added that there does not exist a just reason for this publication because there is no public interest for pseudo-scientific unproved declarations. Finally, these order measures do not prove to be disproportionate. The defendant is prohibit under punishment of up to $5,000, or up to one year in prison, to declaire the decision that food prepared in microwave ovens is dangerous to health and leads: to pathologic troubles is also indicative for the beginning of a cancerous process. The plaintiff pays the costs.
(Signed) President of the Court of Seftigen Kraemer.
"If you cannot imagine this kind of decision coming from a court in the United States you have not been paying attention to the advances of administrative law. Hertel in court, has loudly demanded a fair hearing on the truth of his claims. The Courts continued to delay, dodge, appeal and avoid any media-catching confrontation writing, Hans is still waiting for a hearing with media coverage-and he's still publishing his findings. "They have not been able to intimidate me into silence, not accept their conditions," Hertel declared. "I have appeared at large seminars in Germany, and the study results have been well-received.
Chasing a Story
Journalist Tom Valentine, after chasing this story, found it interesting that 'scientists have so many 'beliefs' to express rather than proven fact. Yet facts eventually bear out credential-based conjecture. Researcher Quan, in a phone interview, said that they believed the results of research so far warranted further detailed study of the effects of microwave cooking on nutrients. The summary sentence in an abstract of the paper is very clear:
"Microwaving appears to be contra-indicated at high temperatures, and questions regarding its safety exist even at low temperatures.
"The final statement of the study conclusion reads:
'This preliminary study suggests that microwaving human milk could be detrimental. Further studies are needed to determine whether and how microwaving could safety be done." Unfortunately, further studies are not scheduled at this time. If there are so many indications that the effects of microwaves on foods can degrade the foods and is known to breakdown the standard of cooking, is it not reasonable to conduct exhaustive studies on living, breathing human beings to determine if it's possible that eating microwaved foods continuously, as many people do, can be significantly detrimental to individual health?
If you wanted to introduce a herbal supplement into the American mainstream any health claims for it, you would be subjected to exhaustive documentation; research. Yet the microwave-oven industry had only to prove that the dangerous microwaves could, indeed, be contained within the oven and not escape into the surrounding area where the radiation could do damage to people. The industry admit that some microwaves escape even in the best-made ovens. So far, no thought has been given by the industry to thepossibility that the nutrients are so altered as to be deleterious to health.
Well, this makes sense in a land that encourages farmers to poison crops and massive amounts of synthesized chemicals, and encourages food processors to add additives that enhance shelf-life of foods regardless of the potential for degrade health of the consumer. How many hundreds of pounds of microwaved food are consumed in America each year? Are we going to continue to take it from established authority, without questioning their premise that they know best?
REMEMBER!!
DO NOT HEAT BABY FORMULA WITH MICROWAVES MOST ESPECIALLY, IT DESTROYS THE MILK;
DO NOT HEAT ANYTHING WITH A MICROWAVE PERIOD - IN OUR OPINION
DO NOT USE AROUND PACE MAKERS
YOUR WATER IS TURNED INTO A NEGATIVE STATE.
BELOW ARE EVEN MORE REASONS NOT TO USE A MICROWAVE
PLEASE BE ADVISED ABOUT HOW TO USE
This was received from a nursing supervisor at Greenville Memorial Hospital.
It was sent to their staff. Cancer News from Johns Hopkins:
1. No plastic containers in microwave.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic. Recently,
Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital, was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we s hould not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. High heat and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin.
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 reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons. Also, he pointed out that Saran wrap is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
The conclusion drawn just from the evidence of baby milk and formula being damaged, what is not mentioned is that this translates to all food microwaved. If cellular destruction is evident than it is for all foods not just milk. You be the judge. It is better to err on the side of reason and take a little more time in food prep. We are now seeing two generations later unprecidented cancers in children and all age groups. The microwave came into popularity in the late 60's. Now look at this many years later we are even more unhealthy. There is a reasonable conclusion that this microwave use and other abnormal foods introduced (no fat low fat phenomenon) that we are reaping the reprocussions of these flawed industrialized nations mis-use of food. How it is grown, the GMO phenomenon, the pesticides and on and on....
TAKE BACK CONTROL. Keep it simple. Organic whole foods, steamed on the stove. Cooked normally in an oven. Let us slow down and enjoy life again.
This is an article I believe you should forward to your family and friends -- anyone who is important to you .

A powerful trade organization, the Swiss Association of Dealers Electro apparatuses for Households and Industry, known simply as FEA, struck. They forced the President of the Court of Seftigen, Kanton Bern, to issue a 'gag order against Hertel and Blanc. The attack was so ferocious that Blanc quickly recanted support-but it was too late. He had already put into writing his views on the the studies where he concurred with the opinion that microwaved food caused abnormalities.
Hertel stood his ground, and today is steadfastly demanding his rights to a trial Preliminary hearings on the matter have been appealed to higher courts, and it obvious the powers that be do not want a 'show trial' to erupt on this issue. In 1993, the court handed down this decision based upon the complaint of the FEA: "Consideration.
Request from the plaintiff (FEA) to prohibit the defendant (Dr Hertel) from declaring that food prepared in the microwave oven shall be labled dangerous to health and lead to changes in the blood of consumers, giving reference to pathologic troubles as also indicative for the beginning of a cancerous process. The defendant shall be prohibited from repeating such a statement in publications and in public talks by punishment laid down the law.2. The jurisdiction of the judge is given according to law.3. The active legitimacy of the plaintiff is given according to the law.4.
The passive legitimacy of the defendant is given by the fact that he is the author of the polemic published study in question, especially since the present new and revised law allows to exclude the necessity of a competitive situation, therefore delinquents may also be persons who a not co-competitors, but may damage the competing position of others t mere declarations. Apparently, Swiss corporations have lobbied in a law that nails "delinquents" who disparage products and might do damage 1 commerce by such remarks. So far, the U.S. Constitution still preserves freedom of the press.5. Considering the relevant situation it is referred three publications: the public renunciation sic of the so-called co-authored. Professor Bernard Blanc, the expertise of
Professor Teuber expert witness from the FEA about the above-mentioned publication, the opinion of the public health authorities with regard to the present stage of research with microwave ovens as well as to repeated statements from the side of the defendant about the danger of such ovens.
It is not considered of importance whether or not the defendant meets the approval of the public, because all that is necessary is that a possibility exists that such a statement could find approval with people not being experts themselves. Also, advertising involving fear is not allowed and is always disqualified by the law. The necessity for interference is in no case more advised than in the processes of competition. Basically, the defendant has the right to defend himself against such accusations. This right, however, can be denied in cases of pressing danger with regard to impairing the rights of the plaintiff where this is requested.
Court Conclusion
On grounds of this pending request of the plaintiff, the court arrives at conclusion that because of special presuppositions as in this case, a definite disadvantage for the plaintiff does exist, which may not easily be repaired, and therefore must be considered to be of immediate danger. The case thus warrants the request of the plaintiff to be justified, even without hearing the defendant.
Also, because it is not known when the defendant will bring further statements into the public. The judge is also of the opinion that because the publications are made up to appear as scientific, and therefore especially reliable-looking, they may cause additional bad disadvantages. It must be added that there does not exist a just reason for this publication because there is no public interest for pseudo-scientific unproved declarations. Finally, these order measures do not prove to be disproportionate. The defendant is prohibit under punishment of up to $5,000, or up to one year in prison, to declaire the decision that food prepared in microwave ovens is dangerous to health and leads: to pathologic troubles is also indicative for the beginning of a cancerous process. The plaintiff pays the costs.
(Signed) President of the Court of Seftigen Kraemer.
"If you cannot imagine this kind of decision coming from a court in the United States you have not been paying attention to the advances of administrative law. Hertel in court, has loudly demanded a fair hearing on the truth of his claims. The Courts continued to delay, dodge, appeal and avoid any media-catching confrontation writing, Hans is still waiting for a hearing with media coverage-and he's still publishing his findings. "They have not been able to intimidate me into silence, not accept their conditions," Hertel declared. "I have appeared at large seminars in Germany, and the study results have been well-received.
Chasing a Story
Journalist Tom Valentine, after chasing this story, found it interesting that 'scientists have so many 'beliefs' to express rather than proven fact. Yet facts eventually bear out credential-based conjecture. Researcher Quan, in a phone interview, said that they believed the results of research so far warranted further detailed study of the effects of microwave cooking on nutrients. The summary sentence in an abstract of the paper is very clear:
"Microwaving appears to be contra-indicated at high temperatures, and questions regarding its safety exist even at low temperatures.
"The final statement of the study conclusion reads:
'This preliminary study suggests that microwaving human milk could be detrimental. Further studies are needed to determine whether and how microwaving could safety be done." Unfortunately, further studies are not scheduled at this time. If there are so many indications that the effects of microwaves on foods can degrade the foods and is known to breakdown the standard of cooking, is it not reasonable to conduct exhaustive studies on living, breathing human beings to determine if it's possible that eating microwaved foods continuously, as many people do, can be significantly detrimental to individual health?
If you wanted to introduce a herbal supplement into the American mainstream any health claims for it, you would be subjected to exhaustive documentation; research. Yet the microwave-oven industry had only to prove that the dangerous microwaves could, indeed, be contained within the oven and not escape into the surrounding area where the radiation could do damage to people. The industry admit that some microwaves escape even in the best-made ovens. So far, no thought has been given by the industry to thepossibility that the nutrients are so altered as to be deleterious to health.
Well, this makes sense in a land that encourages farmers to poison crops and massive amounts of synthesized chemicals, and encourages food processors to add additives that enhance shelf-life of foods regardless of the potential for degrade health of the consumer. How many hundreds of pounds of microwaved food are consumed in America each year? Are we going to continue to take it from established authority, without questioning their premise that they know best?
REMEMBER!!
DO NOT HEAT BABY FORMULA WITH MICROWAVES MOST ESPECIALLY, IT DESTROYS THE MILK;
DO NOT HEAT ANYTHING WITH A MICROWAVE PERIOD - IN OUR OPINION
DO NOT USE AROUND PACE MAKERS
YOUR WATER IS TURNED INTO A NEGATIVE STATE.
BELOW ARE EVEN MORE REASONS NOT TO USE A MICROWAVE
PLEASE BE ADVISED ABOUT HOW TO USE
This was received from a nursing supervisor at Greenville Memorial Hospital.
It was sent to their staff. Cancer News from Johns Hopkins:
1. No plastic containers in microwave.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic. Recently,
Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital, was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we s hould not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. High heat and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin.
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 reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons. Also, he pointed out that Saran wrap is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
The conclusion drawn just from the evidence of baby milk and formula being damaged, what is not mentioned is that this translates to all food microwaved. If cellular destruction is evident than it is for all foods not just milk. You be the judge. It is better to err on the side of reason and take a little more time in food prep. We are now seeing two generations later unprecidented cancers in children and all age groups. The microwave came into popularity in the late 60's. Now look at this many years later we are even more unhealthy. There is a reasonable conclusion that this microwave use and other abnormal foods introduced (no fat low fat phenomenon) that we are reaping the reprocussions of these flawed industrialized nations mis-use of food. How it is grown, the GMO phenomenon, the pesticides and on and on....
TAKE BACK CONTROL. Keep it simple. Organic whole foods, steamed on the stove. Cooked normally in an oven. Let us slow down and enjoy life again.
