Do microwaves cause cancer?

Question

Is there confirmation, by documentation or any variation of attestation, of the imputation that thermal incrementation in alimentation preparation by radiation stimulation of molecular agitation has an exacerbation relation to accumination of carcenogenation?

Answer 1

nah, just smoking and this place

Answer 2

The thermal heating effect of microwaves is well understood and is the basis for the heating action of microwave ovens. Some studies have examined the possibility of a link between microwave exposure and cancer. Results to date have been inconclusive. While some experimental data have suggested a possible link between microwave exposure and cancer, other studies have been unable to replicate these findings. In fact other studies have failed to find evidence for a causal link to cancer or any related condition. For more information about bioeffects of microwaves and radiofrequency energy see the Federal Communications Commission. Modern day microwave ovens are regulated as radiation-emitting electronic products by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health of the Health and Human Services Administration. The allowable leakage level (5 milliwatts per square centimeter at two-inches distance) for microwaves outside commercial microwave ovens is set at a low level generally believed to be safe for human exposure.

We are analyzing by parts and with the cool head not to be alarmist.

1) the microwaves destroy and alter more of 90 % of the nutrients that you contain foods. That of entrance is very bad, since we would eat only starches and the nutricional contribution would be almost null.

2) the alteration of the macronutrient: proteins, fats and carbohydrates, also are bad, since a protein or altered fat appropriately is not processed by the liver since this organ does not know them and with it we caused weave inflammation in our organism and generated toxins or remainders also not known.

3) If the accumulation in our weaves of those remainders or toxins is very frequent, prolonged or continuous we have then cellular DNA alteration.

4) If the altered cells correctly are not eliminated by our body (immunological system), we will have precancerous cells.

5) deficient an immunological system and a bad feeding with excess of rich animal foods greasy and that contain great amounts of gluten give origin to malignant tumors.

Another indirect risk when using microwaves is that if we put the hands when the microwaves are even circulating around the interior of the furnace, we produce alterations in the DNA, that is to say, we arrived more quickly at the point 3, that by the altered food consumption.

My final conclusion is: - the use of microwaves and the foods warmed up in this one, produce cáncer? Yes, under certain circumstances, and in very variable times depending on the answer of our immunological system.

Answer 5

No, if you calculate the energy that is being transmitted to molecules by microwaves, the amount is only enough to cause vibrations of molecules (and thus the heating of the material). The local energy that microwaves transmitt to molecules is far from enogh to cause ionisation and creation of free radicals, what is the basic process of DNA damage, mutation and cancer etiology. Therefore, this form of radiation does not have the power to influence cancer occurence. And one should not be worried when using cell phones or other normal microwave sources.

Answer 6

No studies have proven modern microwave usage to be harmful. Much of the fear about the cancer-causing agents of microwaves has to do with radiation. Basically anything that moves is radiation, including visible light, ultra-violet rays, X rays, and microwaves. Ionizing radiation, such as X rays, have enough localized energy to do chemical damage to the molecules they hit. Nonionizing radiation, such as microwaves, do not damage molecules.

Answer 7

Nothing has been proven, but then, it takes decades of conclusive proof to do that, and the microwave hasn't been around long enough.

Answer 8

Yes they do. So does teflon, certain deoderants, baby powder, latex condoms, sexual lubricants, HPV and some types of colone. Cancer is everywhere these days. Make sure you dont catch it.

Answer 9

Yep, mynes started making lightening in my baked beans!
is it the beans fault or the microwave?

Answer 10

EVERYTHING causes cancers nowadays, YahooAnswers causes cancer, thinking causes cancer.

Answer 11

yes
