Microwaves settled firmly on each kitchen. Cook and heat food in them is much faster. Along with the advantages of the microwave oven, do not cease talking about harm to human health.
For heating food in the microwave using a powerful electromagnetic radiation. Waves in decimeter penetrate into the structure of the products and affect the water molecule.
The molecules are arranged around the created electromagnetic field and are in constant motion. Friction resulting from the movement of the molecules, improves the product temperature. Unlike classical and ovens, the products are heated from the inside. It takes a few seconds.
Harm or benefit
During heating food in a microwave oven molecules rotate at high speed. This damages the structure. The molecules are deformed and broken shell. The product obtained from Molecular completely transformed structure.
Based on this fact all the scientific evidence of harm caused by the human body with microwaves.
According to experts, microwaves can be dangerous on several factors:
- under the influence of microwave radiation changed the product structure, and the body is unable to digest food properly;
- when heating food in a microwave allocated carcinogens that can trigger the development of cancer;
- human organism has no ability to assimilate transformed microwaved vitamins and minerals;
- electromagnetic radiation that penetrates through the housing microwave, a negative effect on the human body;
- when heated in a microwave food loses useful properties and perceived by the body as a foreign substance to be printed;
- accidentally fell into the furnace metal object can cause the device to burst and cause injury to the user.
Scientists from Switzerland conducted a study which revealed damage to the microwave in the certain areas of the body. They hired a man who alternately take the food prepared in the usual way and using the microwave.
According to the results of the experiment were made conclusions about the negative impact of the food from the microwave oven:
- on the brain, causing irreversible changes in its bark;
- Digestive system - the body does not recognize the transformed food, staying hungry, even reworking large amounts of food;
- the hormonal system - the body is not responding to the food from the microwave, impaired development of male and female hormones;
- on blood vessels and joints - vitamins and minerals altered by microwaves not absorbed by the body and are deposited on the walls of blood vessels and joints;
- in Blood - after consumption of food from the microwave it loses its ability to clot, due to this disturbed wound healing.
However, even the most skeptical researchers were able to deny the existence of the device a number of useful features that are not available conventional oven.
First of all, it is the speed of heating food. To whet your product takes only a few seconds. The stove does not require preheating and is ready for use immediately after switching to the network.
Products that require prolonged heat treatment in a conventional oven or on the stove, in the microwave are prepared in several times faster. Defrost meat and fish takes 2 to 5 minutes.
Myth or reality?
The results of research presented by a group of Swiss scientists have been completely refuted by the World Health Organization. According to them, the microwave radiation can not affect the products or the human body. At the same time, WHO drew the attention of consumers to the fact that microwave radiation can disrupt pacemakers.
Unable to fully prove and influence products, warmed in the microwave, on the gastrointestinal tract of a human. Harms the body is not processing microwave products, and systematic improper diet.
Carcinogens, which stated the researchers, appear as a result of frying in a conventional stove with oil. When heating oils they released a lot more than when using microwaves.
Vitamins and minerals are partially decompose at any heat treatment. Cooked in a microwave oven food is no different in content from the usual cooked on the stove, and has better performance, as prepared without oil.
The radiation that scares opponents use of furnaces, in fact, does not exceed the emission from the mobile phone as a specially designed body is completely keeps it inside apparatus. The danger may be a furnace, in which the housing is damaged.
Scientific evidence of risk of explosion due to the microwave placed inside metal devices were found. It was found that the furnace begins to spark, but do not explode on heating metal. May explode raw egg. In this case, the gap may be affected by the oven door.
When used properly, the microwave damage to human health is not higher than when using any of the household appliance.
Recommendations for the use of microwave ovens
Among the main tips are:
- To get the maximum benefit from the use of the stove and get rid of the negative impact, observe the safety precautions.
- You can not violate the rules of installation recommended by the manufacturer. Microwave oven should be placed away from other home appliances. Do not block the air vent.
- Operation of the device is strictly forbidden damaged or casing glass. This can lead to leakage of radiation or an electrical shock.
- Reheat foods should only be recommended by the manufacturer. Do not place objects in the oven, not intended for her. Do not open the door during the working process. Most models are equipped with protection, which turns off the oven when opening the door, but if you do it consistently, it can go bad.
- The amount of food warmed up for a time, should not exceed the recommended. Food is not fully warmed up, and the stove will work in emergency mode.
- To heat food, use a glass bowl with thick walls or special heat-resistant plastic. Do not operate the microwave oven empty, so as not to damage the inside.
- Clean your microwave oven with a soft sponge without using abrasives, so as not to damage the protective coating.
Most of the statements on the microwave harm to humans do not find understanding among users, and sales of microwave ovens remain consistently high. The device facilitates the cooking and irrefutable evidence, whether microwave is harmful, has not yet been granted.
Should not completely abandon the classical stoves and replace them with microwave, but a reasonable approach to reduce the time spent on cooking meals possible.
The main thing - to observe the period of operation specified by the manufacturer and do not use a microwave oven after it has expired.
