Many would argue that it’s just heating in a more concentrated form.
This is however quite far from the truth.
Microwaving your food completely destroys disease and cancer-fighting nutrients in food which indirectly promotes nutritional deficiencies in your body.Microwaves completely kill the nutritional content of your food.
They destroy vitamins and phytonutrients that help prevent disease and support good health.
Why Do Microvawes Destroy Nutrients?
Vitamins and Phytonutrients are important plant-based nutrients. These are highly fragile molecules and are easily destroyed by heat.
This is why raw plant foods contain far more nutrition than cooked foods. Microwave energy can easily destroy carotenoids, antioxidants and other molecules .
Microwaves “Blast” Your Food at a Mollecular Level !
Microwaves excite the water molecules inside your food, causing heat to be formed from the inside out. Every cell of the food is destroyed , resulting in the almost-total molecular decomposition of the vitamins and phytonutrients .
Microwaved food is totally “dead” food. It is food that has been molecularly deconstructed, leaving nothing but empty calories, fiber and minerals. Virtually the entire vitamin and phytonutrient profile has been completely decimated.
While steaming vegetables help make certain nutrients more bioavailable, microwaving destroys veggies from the inside out at a cellular level.
Microwaving can therefore be considered the worst way to cook your food.
Appearances Can Be Deceiving
What’s dangerously deceptive about microwave cooking is that your food remains basically the same, but at the cellular level, it would be more like a nuclear war has taken place.
How To Eat Healthy
If you want to eat in a healthy way, make sure a good part of your diet is from raw plants. Steamed, stir-fried or even grilled veggies are of course alright, but try to avoid burning them because all burned parts contain toxic, cancer-causing chemicals that promote colon cancer.
