Read this before using your microwave again
In a study conducted by the Russians (the original inventors of the microwave oven), Carcinogens were formed in all foods tested. These foods were heated in microwave ovens only for the amount of time needed to cook, thaw, or heat the food to ensure sanitation. A summary of the results follows:
* in meats, it caused formation of d-Nitrosodiethanolamines, a carcinogen
* in milk and cereal grains, some amino acids were converted into carcinogens
* thawing frozen fruits caused their glucoside & galactoside to be converted into carcinogens.
* cooked or frozen vegetables with only short exposure converted their plant alkaloids into carcinogens.
* plants, and especially root vegetables formed carcinogenic free radicals.
In another short term study of 8 people, significant changes in the blood of people consuming microwaved milk and vegetables was discovered. The same combination of foods were cooked by different methods, and in all of the foods cooked in a microwave oven, blood changes were noted in the volunteers, such as decreased hemoglobin, white cell, and lymphocytes levels, and increased cholesterol levels.
Dr. Lita Lee's book "Health Effects of Microwave Radiation-Microwave Ovens," as well as in the March and September 1991 issues of Earthletter, stated that every microwave oven leaks electromagnetic radiation, harms foods, and converts substances cooked in them to dangerous organ-toxic and carcinogenic products. So why are microwave ovens still being sold and haven't been banned by the FDA?

And that's how the fight started.......
A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror.
She is not happy with what she sees and says to her husband,
'I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay
me a compliment.'
The husband replies, 'Your eyesight's damn near perfect.'
And that's how the fight started...
