Microwave Cancer Risk: These days, every house has a modular kitchen. Every kitchen in a house generally has a microwave, even ones without modular kitchens. Heating food with microwaves is a common practice. It is used to heat meals not just in households but also in workplaces, hotels, and restaurants.
When food is cooked in a microwave, one question that undoubtedly comes to mind is whether or not it raises the chance of a serious illness like cancer. Many individuals do not utilize it because they think this to be true. A lot of individuals think that eating food heated by artificial light is unhealthy. Let’s hear the doctor’s opinion on this from him.
Myth About Microwaves
You’ve likely heard that consuming food that has been microwave-heated increases the risk of cancer. It is thought that food gets radioactive because of the artificial heat (radiation) that microwaves create, which can lead to illnesses like cancer. Regarding this, a well-known physician from AIIMS uploaded a video on her Instagram account wherein she expressed her thoughts on the matter.
Can Microwave Cause Cancer
In her video, she clarified that the misunderstanding that is being propagated regarding microwaves is untrue. The microwave does not emit this kind of radiation, which increases the possibility of not developing diseases like cancer.
The radiation released during microwave cooking aids in the food’s rapid heating. In addition, the meal receives heat from all directions. In contrast, the meal heats up from the bottom up when using gas. However, no such radiation is released, therefore your food cannot become radioactive. There is no risk of illness from using a microwave to fast-cook food; it just does that.
