Radiation causes permanent and non-permanent changes inside and among molecule structures that result to all sort of chain reactions. Small alterations that could not even be effecting the atoms in a molecule but rather how they are bind together (like their position in space or electron structure) is enough to cause abnormality/unusual responses as far as the metabolism goes (ex. trans-lipids). This of course is my general knowledge Im trying to say only things I could strongly back-up, I cant really state that I know how the micro-waves would be effecting the food and if there is actually danger, though I would fear it for the time be.
Its not just as simple as it sounds and apparently no one here has provided us with depth-full insight on the effect of microwaves on food. I know Russia has banned microwaves for being dangerous to public health. I do know that radiation like that of cell-phones could alter the nature of our cells or even damaged them (like when you talk on the phone) causing weird situations to practice you're normal homeostasis over. This is a deep biochemistry topic, would love to see some expertise talk. Anyhow I would not use this technology at home, I prefer other forms of food processing when having to for all that matters. Microwaves are being used as an alternative to heat processing when it is considered less harming to the quality of the food and more cost efficient in the industry field. Of course its been thousands of years that our bodies are adjusted to consuming/metabolizing raw and heated chemical structures from food sources I go for those in seeking for the best food to eat to maintain maximum vitality.
