Microwave Dangers: This Common Appliance May Be Anything but Harmless
This article by Dr. Mercola has some interesting points worth considering and worthy of further study. While I may not agree with everything he presents, there are some definite points of agreement, and points to ponder. Indeed, it warrants further research. I found a number of salient points in the article. Plasticizers DO leach into food. It is measurable and well-established. BPA is a prime example. It is a known carcinogen. Other plasticizers can leach from plastic into hot water. Teflon also degrades with heating. Nutrients are depleted by cooking and heating. So its a question of degree, not if, in many cases. Lastly, thermal effects in tissue have been well studied. That is what FCC standards are based upon. What about other effects on cellular chemistry? It is worthy of study without reflexive dismissal.
