See article keywords and concepts |  This is no coincidence. microwave ovens heat food through a process of creating molecular friction, but this same molecular friction quickly destroys the delicate molecules of vitamins and phytonutrients (plant medicines) naturally found in foods. One study showed that microwaving vegetables destroys up to 97% of the nutritional content (vitamins and other plant-based nutrients that prevent disease, boost immune function and enhance health).
In other words, eating raw broccoli provides you with natural anti-cancer medicine that's extremely effective at halting the growth of cancer tumors. | | Minerals are largely unaffected, however, so you'll still get the same magnesium, calcium and zinc in microwaved foods as you would in non-microwaved foods, but the all-important B vitamins, anthocyanins, flavonoids and other nutritional elements are easily destroyed by microwave ovens.
The microwave is the appliance of the living dead. People who use the microwave on a regular basis are walking down a path towards degenerative disease and a lifelong battle with obesity. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The Soviet Union banned the use of microwave ovens in 1976. Yet, more than 90 percent of American homes have microwave ovens. Because microwave ovens are so convenient and energy efficient, as compared to conventional ovens, very few homes or restaurants are without them. The general perception, even among health professionals, is that whatever a microwave oven does to foods cooked in it doesn't have any negative effect on either the food or the consumer of the food. This is far from the truth. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The Russian government had banned microwave ovens for over 50 years, but they were recently introduced to the Russian market (for "economic" reasons). microwave ovens have taken over the cooking chores in nine out of ten American homes, and American and Chinese microwave manufacturers hope that the same will happen in Russia.
Reporting for the Forensic Research Document of AREC Research, William P. Kopp now states: "The effects of microwaved food byproducts are long-term, permanent within the human body. |

See book keywords and concepts | | The use of microwave ovens is almost universal in restaurants and homes in North America. Considering the foregoing information, it is likely that serious damage at the human cellular level is being wrought throughout the western world. Yet, as with many other aspects of our food, medicines, and environment, the cumulative effects of microwaves are gradual; when the onset of illness occurs, it is very hard to make the connection with the original cause. For these reasons, in my opinion, the use of microwave ovens, and eating food and drinks that have been heated in them, is not advised. | | NOXIOUS ENERGY FIELDS
Most of us are somewhat aware that electronic equipment like television sets, computers, microwave ovens, heating pads, electric blankets, cell phones, electric razors, and high tension power lines give off radiation or electrical waves that may be harmful. But do we really understand the health implications of electromagnetic radiation? Knowledge of noxious energy fields emanating from certain earth locations is just beginning to be understood. We have man-made electromagnetic force fields (emf), as well as natural ones from the earth, known as geopathic forces. | | The history of microwave ovens dates back to World War II, when the Nazis began research and development of these devices. They were searching for ways to overcome the logistical problems of producing edible food in a short time, and to be able to reduce the amount and bulk of cooking fuels that would be required to support their planned operations for the military invasion of Russia.19 At the end of the war, the United States' War Department and the Soviet Union obtained the German microwave research and some of the devices. They took them home for further study. | | Adding to the German research from the early forties, the Russians continued to research the biological effects of microwave ovens and microwave-cooked food. Their findings led them, in 1976, to issue an international warning concerning the biological and environmental dangers of using such ovens and similar electronic frequency devices.20
German and Russian researchers found21 that cooking food with microwaves:
Produces cancer causing agents. Destroys nutritive values.
Reduces the food's vital energy field content by 60-90%. | | For these reasons, in my opinion, the use of microwave ovens, and eating food and drinks that have been heated in them, is not advised.
Genetically Altered Food
Genetically altered food is food derived from plants or animals that has had its genetic structure altered by splicing in genes of another species. Such produce is also referred to as "bioengineered" or "transgenic." Scientists are experimenting with these processes in attempts to increase yields, increase plant resistance to toxins and pests, increase nutrient levels, and improve taste. In 2000, 25% of the U.S. |

Insulating materials, paints, carpets, glues, tobacco smoke, ovens, vacuum cleaners, air conditioning, all emit fumes, irritants or radiation, and the list goes on.
In the last thirty years we have become surrounded by electromagnetic fields, not just from household appliances but also from living near high-tension powerlines. |
Craig Pepin-Donat
See book keywords and concepts |  Speaking of microwave ovens, did you know that the microwaves alter the actual molecular structure of the food you're zapping? And that the cells in food literally explode when microwaved? Don't you find that odd, curious, even scary? Using microwave technology dramatically reduces the nutritional value of foods and promotes the creation of free radical, cancer-causing agents. We must choose between being exposed to toxic elements versus the convenience of having what we want when we want it. Are you willing to give up the convenience of using a microwave? |

See book keywords and concepts | | This man-made electric current produces "electro-pollution" emitted by computer equipment, TV transmissions, AM radio waves, mobile telephones, and the various home and industrial appliances such as hairdryers, electric toasters, and microwave ovens.
If you happen to sleep in a room that has a television set connected to the power circuit, your body may be building up an electric charge of up to 105 Volts! The same occurs when you lie next to an electronic alarm clock or a bedside light. A switched-on electric blanket can even double or triple the electric charge in your body. | | Microwaves rip apart the molecular bonds that make food to be "food." microwave ovens hurl high-frequency microwaves that boil the moisture within food and its packaging by whipsawing water molecules dizzyingly back-and-forth at more than a billion reversals per second. This frantic friction fractures food molecules, rearranging their chemical composition into weird new configurations unrecognizable as food by human bodies. By destroying the molecular structures of food, the body cannot help but turn the food into waste, but not harmless waste, rather, "nuclear waste. |

See book keywords and concepts | | We can be affected in the home, too, where the air's ionic balance is altered by television screens, radiators, radios, fluorescent tubes, gas heaters, nylon carpet and microwave ovens.
Ionising machines produce a constant flow of negative ions. Small ionisers, with a range of 3-5 metres, can be plugged in near a bed or placed on a work desk or bench. More powerful units can be used in offices and larger areas. Ionisation also cleans the air of allergy-causing bacteria, cigarette smoke, pollen and dust that can irritate the respiratory tract. |

It was concluded that microwave cooking changed the nutrients in the food, leading to changes in the consumer's blood that could damage bodily systems.
2. In the December 9, 1 989 Lancet, Dr. Lita Lee reported that microwave warming of some baby formulas transforms certain trans-amino acids into synthetic substances such as trans-fats. L-Proline, one of the amino acids, converts to a poisonous substance that harms the kidneys and the nervous system.

See book keywords and concepts | | The following five pieces of information, although not conclusive, are highly suggestive of the potential risks of using microwave ovens.
The first is a piece of news about a lawsuit in Oklahoma in 1991 concerning the hospital use of a microwave oven to warm blood needed in a transfusion. The case involved a hip surgery patient, Norma Levitt, who died from a simple blood transfusion. It seems the nurse had warmed the blood in a microwave oven. | | Because microwave ovens are so convenient and energy efficient, as compared to conventional ovens, very few homes or restaurants are without them.

See book keywords and concepts |  Despite reams of studies, we are left with contradictory guidelines about the safety of cell phones, microwave ovens, computers, and other electronics that emit low-level electromagnetic or magnetic fields. We know even less about how the huge fields of energy that encompass Earth affect us. For example, we are only now beginning to explore how the electromagnetic fields that fill the ionosphere impact us. |

The fifth interesting piece of information is the Russian investigations published by the Atlantis Raising Educational Center in Portland, Oregon. Carcinogens were formed in virtually all foods tested. No test food was subjected to more microwaving than necessary to accomplish the purpose, that is, cooking, thawing, or heating to ensure sanitary ingestion. Here's a summary of some of the results:

Samsung produces DVD recorders, cell phones, TVs, and many other high-tech products. The Samsung semiconductor plant in Austin, Texas, ranks in the top 30 percent for lowest total environmental releases and had no harmful releases of carcinogens, neurotoxins, blood toxicants, or other harmful chemicals. | | Since to varying degrees we all use appliances from washers and refrigerators to microwave ovens, as well as high-tech electronics gear like laptops, cell phones, and digital music players, it pays to know more about the companies manufacturing these products and from whom we are purchasing them if we want to extend our good acts into the world at large. Most of these companies manufacture throughout the world so our shopping dollars have a lot of power to prevent or foster destruction.
Let me tell you what I've learned about many of our most popular brands of kitchen and high-tech appliances. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The widespread adoption of microwave ovens by U.S. households (now in nearly 90% of homes) contributes to the convenience of home meal replacements for takeout [199]. Driven by consumer demand for convenience due to hectic schedules, the market for home meal replacements will continue to rise. It is speculated that miniaturized outlets offering hot fast-food meals might one day be as common in public buildings as soft drink machines are today [199]. This speaks to the need for consumer education and nutrition labeling of these products.

See book keywords and concepts |  Space is filled with microwaves of about the same frequency as we use in microwave ovens. The intensity of this radiation dwindles as the universe expands; hence what we now observe is the faint afterglow of the hot primeval fireball.
Cosmologists used the big bang theory to study how the fireball expanded and cooled, how atomic nuclei formed, and how the grand spirals of galaxies emerged from featureless gas clouds. The results of these studies were in excellent agreement with astronomical observations, so there was little doubt that the theory was on the right track. |
