What's wrong with microwaves? Aside from their mechanism of heating, what do they do differently to food to anything else? Arguably they get the outsides of some foods much hotter than otherwise, but I'm not sure how true that might really be - we regularly cook loads of other foods at very high temperatures in ovens or pans.

- horstmeyer 3y agoI had a organic chemistry professor when I studied biology at university, who said he was convinced that microwaves split amino acid chains in proteins, thus leading to free radicals which could be cancerogenic.
- XorNot 3y agoFree radicals last for microseconds in any material. The moment you removed microwave power the free radicals would immediately react with other materials and stabilise (plenty of those in food since the whole point of it is it's high energy). Which is to say, that's a very specific claim for a professor to make without publishing any papers about it.
