Microwave foods are often worried about whether there will be any risk of cancer caused by radiation. If you use microwave ovens too often, you will have any health concerns. In response to this, the nurse said that the health risks that should be paid attention to are different. We also teach everyone to use microwave ovens well to avoid preventing accidents!

Can microwave radiation and microwave food cause cancer? Nutritionist: If you have quality assurance, you won’t.

Can radiation cause cancer? Manman Nutritionist said that microwave ovens use non-ionized radiation waves to make the polar molecules in food, such as water or protein, vibrate violently to generate heat, thereby achieving the effect of food heating. However, this is actually very different from the radiation energy of nuclear power plants or nuclear waste materials, and the amount is also different. Unless it is used in unknown microwave ovens, it will not cause cancer to the human body or affect health under normal use.

Can electromagnetic waves cause cancer? In addition, some people believe that microwave furnaces will emit electromagnetic waves, and electromagnetic waves may also cause cancer. However, in life, almost all electrical appliances have electromagnetic waves, including mobile phones and computers, which is more likely to be higher than using microwave ovens. However, if you really want to prevent it, you can keep the appropriate distance from the microwave oven at about 1-3 meters during use. You don’t have to worry too much when using the microwave oven alone.

Are you afraid of radiation causing cancer by eating microwave food? Nutritionists say that you should pay attention to four risks!

Although a normal quality-guaranteed microwave oven will not cause harm to human health, improper microwave heating may still cause health risks.

Overnight dish: Be careful of food poisoning. Nutritionists point out that the most common microwaved food for the public is overnight dish. Sometimes, overnight dishes that don’t even know how many nights are, they are likely to produce a lot of bacteria. Although the risk of carcinogenic is not that high, it may cause food poisoning, causing abdominal pain, abdominal pain, nausea, and fever. Especially the people always treat the leftovers as overnight dishes, and the risk of saliva and bacteria is higher. Therefore, it is recommended to prepare overnight dishes first and then start the meal, and avoid too many days. It is recommended to be at most one day.

Repeated microwave: If you have no nutrition and hurt your body, the people will also be keen on microwave and then heat it up. Manman Nutritionist said that this method does not matter which way of cooking. As long as the food is heated once, the nutrients will be lost once, and the chance of bacterial production will increase, which may cause both nutrition and body damage. It is recommended that the microwaved food be properly processed before it is finished.

Uncooked microwave/overcooked: Be careful about bacteria/carcinogen microwave time, and also a point to pay attention to. Manman Nutritionist said that it is recommended to understand how long the food needs to be microwaved during microwaves, fully heat it up and avoid overhead. If the food is not fully heated, it may not only be a bad taste, but also kill bacteria. If the microwave is over, it may even show a burnt smell. In addition to excessive water loss and dryness, burnt food may also have carcinogenic risks in the long run, just as people often hear "Don't eat burnt food." Remind the public in daily life that when microwave food appears in shape or tastes abnormal, don’t eat it again.

Plastic and cosmetics: You may take plasticizers. Also remind you that when you store food, you should use plastic products such as cosmetics. It should be avoided during the microwave process. It is recommended to use glassware as the best. Manman Nutritionist said that although most of the fresh films generally indicate temperature resistance of 100 degrees, some may only reach 90 degrees and dissolution of plasticizers. It is best to avoid it for protection. It is worth noting that the correct way of using the fresh film should be cultivated into a good habit of "not touching food", because the fresh film varies from brand to brand, if it is touched with oil, it is possible to dissolve plasticizers, so you need to pay attention to this point. As for other inevitable plastic containers, they can naturally be avoided.

Only eggs can't be put in microwave ovens? The point is sealing! All three common types will explode.

I believe everyone knows that eggs or metal products cannot be added when using microwave ovens, but in fact, it is not just these two things. Manman Nutritionist pointed out that the biggest key in terms of food is not eggs, but "sealed food."

Manman Nutritionist pointed out that the principle of heating is to use radiation to make water molecules active, and the energy, heat, etc. of food will also expand, which may cause energy to accumulate and explode in the microwave oven. Such as complete eggs, film-coated fragrant chestnuts, or unshelled chestnuts, but if they are half-cut eggs, sliced fragrant chestnuts, and already-shelled chestnuts, they will not have this problem.
