No, that's not true. Some people are conspiracy theorists and think that it's a huge government cover up. But, no, microwaves don't pose a risk to human health. Veggies maintain more of their nutrients when cooked in a microwave, as compared to standard cooking methods. Here are a couple of websites that dispel some common microwave myths.

Well the reason it is not healthy to use a microwave is because the radiation waves they use to cook the food take out a lot of the nutrients in the food. Also if stand in front of a microwave while you are cooking something in it, can literally cook your brain.

Cooking food in a microwave is not bad for your health. Indeed, more nutrients are maintained in food cooked in a microwave than food that is boiled or baked.
