if a microwave enables someone to eat more vegetables and other healthy foods that's incredibly beneficial.

We shouldn't worry about potential loss of a single nutrient or potential creation of a toxin. All cooking creates toxins.

Remember that nearly 100% of research is driven not by people trying to solve real-world problems, but by graduate students trying to get a degree, or professors trying to get more grant money. And a significant portion of these studies are bullshit as regards their statistical value.

nostr:npub1fh3jlejm86pfcjnmh240chzaqt9psczg6pzj96zk7k9v3z9zpv5qkcx8fc I know for a fact you can't evaluate the legitimacy of these stats. So don't waste your time worrying about this. And don't burden other people with inconclusive conclusions that are dubious in value.

how dumb are you? this (total piece of crap btw)paper says:

"Microwave can increase the resistant starch content to reach these targets. (4) For the easily oxidized products: Microwave can increase the antioxidant activity of some components and reduce body damage caused by peroxidation. (5) For emulsified products: Microwave can increase the stability of emulsified food and prevent the flocculation of ingredients. (6) For persons who have specific amino acid requirements: The microwave can boost the quantity of certain specific amino acids in food. (7) For allergy sufferers: Microwave can reduce the allergenicity of their meals. At the same time, there are no safety concerns with microwave-processed foods, and more flavor and small molecular nutrients such as vitamins and minerals have been preserved. These evidences demonstrate that the microwave can replace traditional food processing processes"

also they are microwave shills

"In addition, the development of new functional foods for health needs and future market based on microwave technology is also prospected."

I don't have time to debate with you. Here is another one that might better. https://www.drberg.com/blog/do-microwaves-actually-lower-your-nutrients-in-food
