I am scared of my Microwave... :-(
Nowadays I stay out of the kitchen as much as possible when the Microwave is put on... I guess it is because I heard some of the young ladies I know well getting breast cancer. Any truth in this fear?Or is it just a phobia? Is Microwave my friend or enemy in disguise....?Cant live without it anyway....
drmana, Thanks for the link: P
But I don’t use Microwave...
now i am gettin scared....
are the men safe?
when was this posted??? I don't wake up so early these days:-)
Well, no connection proved via medical research so far between microwave cooking and breast cancer. We never know what future studies will reveal, but no such link found as of yet.
Here is a link to related article:

Microwave is the most unhealthy way to cook...
One can steam most food hot in almost the same time...
camel and rabbit breast meat? Lol!
rizks i may go in the evening to slaughter house for camel and rabbit meat
ill go today and check in mawashi and the rabbit meat ofcourse
oh no you will die with Microwave.... Put some water on the microwave so you will be safe. Put some while it's on
Do camel use microwave? hmmmm
XD
asif khan wat happened about Camel Meat ?
@flor1212 no no no i was talking about breast cancer not breasts
Nahh I dont think that using microwave makes your breast prone to cancer.. as the say in above like Asif.. there are lots of thing it may cause... this include bad food habit, emotional stress and other stresses.
So dont be scare with your microwave... XD
As long as you are outside the microwave oven, you are safe. Rest all is rumours originated by technophobic people!
discussion is about breasts, hip and curves! Lol!
we are talking about life! And you are thinking about breasts? Asif's?
Gosh people everything in life KILLS YOU! Does that mean we will stop using these essential things? Pay less attention to these rumors and just enjoy life...you get what comes to you one way or another, the more you sit to worry about them the more you are missing out on life. If you think driving cars is dangerous you could get hit by one walking in the street.
So why stress? I believe a person will die when his time is up and there's nothing we can do to avoid it. Now relax about your breasts!
where is Drmana now?
the radiation level emitted by microwave is approved by the authorities concerned and if you read the manual, there are safety precautions in using it, most notably is, make sure the hatch is closed while operating the unit! NO NEED TO WORRY! I's safe!
Why does my cordless phone get a crackling sound when the Microwave is on? That means the radiation is reaching my phone and me, I guess... I think that thought has put my panic button on.... Or are the waves handling each other away from me....?
I was just asking, what is the radiation level being emitted by microwave?
there are lots of things which causes cancer. they are:-
1.cellphone
2.smoking
3.tobbacco
4.alcohol
an article I read stated that there is no safe level of exposure to radiation..
"away"! Lol!
flor ur signature note is OFFENSIVE....:)
so familiar with technical terms so stop saying those words. Now if anyone can mention the average radiation level of a microwave as against radiation level that causes cancer, maybe all of us will be enlightened!
Make the Microwave your couch... Very snug and cosy... Ouches will come anyway....
Your microwave oven uses electromagnetic waves to twist the molecules of water in your food to generate heat , so you are perfectly safe as long as you follow the basic safety procedures which comes with your oven's manual.
even i also heard that we should not use microwave. its raditions r not good and can cause cancer also. but without this v can not survive.
Oh.. not again...
i use microwave oven to make bobcorn... me and my partner sit on a couch and make Ouch Ouch noises...!:)
Men have no breast? Hehehehehe!!!!
The different causes of cancer have not really been determined scientifically. There are many suspected causes and carcinogens, but nothing is 100% sure. On the other hand, if microwaves caused cancer, then the percentage of people suffering from cancer should be significantly higher than it is now. So you can choose to be paranoid if you want to, or you can continue to live your life in a normal fashion.
smoke sometimes i use microwave to heat my stuff
yeah smoke, remote and the couch.. :P
asif dont ask stupid questions...men do NOT use microwaves...we only use tv remotes
if men use microwave will they get BREAST CANCER?
there is another 2 Doctors here in QL hope they will reply on this thread :) common guys !!
"Microwave ovens don’t make foods radioactive. They just heat them. Microwave ovens heat food by producing radiation which is absorbed by water molecules in the food. This makes the water molecules vibrate and produce heat, which cooks the food.
Any modern day microwave oven in good condition is perfectly safe as long as you follow the instructions for use. If you use a microwave oven in the correct way there is no known harmful effect on humans. But people still tend to worry. Understanding the different types of radiation may help to reassure you that cooking in a microwave is not dangerous and won’t cause cancer."
