No. It emits non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation.
Ionizing radiation is the cancer causing stuff. Wiki it if you don’t believe me.
no.
Only if you insist on staring wide-eyed at the popocorn popping through the lit glass door…..you’re suppopsed to do that with Jiffy Pop and a stove top….not a microwave!
I am not going to say there is a 0% increase.
Whatever correlation microwave radiation and cancer have cannot be experimentally determined.
This also holds for lose doses of ionizing radiation. Non-ionizing radiation like visible light, infrared, radio waves, and microwaves cause damage through heating.
