What initially alerted me to their danger was our neighbour, a UK nurse (I live in NZ) ... she said as a trainee nurse in the UK they were told not to heat infants' milk in microwaves as it destroyed the nutrients.
This might be the same article I came across in the late 80s, when I cut the cord and tossed it in the garbage after reading it. It was my mom doing the same that motivated me to research her reasons as to why she did.
Interesting thing, my in-laws had a microwave oven and cooked, heated everything in it that they ate/drank, even water for tea/cocoa. They died at different times at the age of 67 & 68.
My mom lived until 84, and my dad will be 92 in December, still kickin’.
I wonder if the in-laws use of the microwave oven cut their lives short.
Might well be why they did not live as long. You had a smart mom. Mine was the same, only much of hers was her 6th sense. Interesting isn't it how, (as in the case of the UK nursing profession) they didn't warn everybody they were unsafe? I did also see in my research back then that somebody literally tested the microwaved foods for nutrition against non-microwaved. Predictably their damning evidence got shuffled under the rug! Awesome about your parents though. Still kickin at 92 is great... may he live many more years!
My mom’s sixth sense was very strong as well as her sense of her physical body. If anything felt off physically the slightest bit, she knew it wasn’t healthy for her or anyone else. We were both very fortunate to have moms that were so in tune with the invisible side of life, eh Pam?
That point about microwaved food and low hemoglobin turned on a light bulb for me. Likely this deficiency, like most other things, is due to our recent technology and not so much our genetics.
I haven’t used a microwave for years. When I was taking care of my mom at her house she had one, but I never used it. It was above the stove and I couldn’t unplug it unless I took it out of the wall. I got very sick while taking care of her and have wondered if it might have had something to do with the microwave. It’s easy to live without one. I don’t miss it at all
Strange thing is that I never used her microwave. I always looked at it as a big, bad monster lol. I just wonder if having one in the house plugged in can affect your health. I just don’t like those things
Well I use mine for reheating food I've cooked but not for cooking per se. I also use it to boil water. I unplug it at night as it could be an always on drain on my electric and run my electric bill higher.
I read over 10 years ago that microwaves were banned in Russia.

Indeed we were Eva : )
Y'all were bringing the heat with this one.

Thank you for sharing that Honey Bee...yes life gets more "convenient" and comfortable when we're healthy!

I’ve read that if it’s plugged in, it’s still emitting radiation. I think there are detectors to check the amount being emitted.
Tossed our microwave in the early 90s. TVs went out shortly after. 😊
