If you do not want cancer to visit, do not put these foods in the microwave

1. Eggs

During microwave heating, the liquid side reaches high pressure without a vent, like a miniature pressure cooker, to the point where the egg can explode. Even more terrifying, the egg will not break in the microwave while it is heated, but after that, it may explode in your hand, on a plate or even in your mouth.

2. Breast milk

Many mothers freeze and store milk for their baby's convenience. The microwave cannot warm the bottle evenly, creating hot spots that can burn your baby's mouth and throat. The plastic from the bottle is reheated, increasing the risk of cancer.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends warming breastmilk and formula milk on a stove or bottle warmer.

3. Fruit

The fruit in the microwave will make the amount of nutrients in the fruit almost gone.

In particular, you must never put grapes in the microwave, including fresh grapes and raisins. When the food is put into the microwave, the heat in the oven will cause the food to heat up, creating a dangerous fire. At the same time, burnt grapes will produce a lot of plasma gas, which can damage the internal parts of the microwave.

4. Green vegetables

If you want to cook celery, kale or spinach, reheat them in a regular oven instead of a microwave. Once in the microwave, natural nitrates (very good for you) can turn into carcinogens.

5. Carrots

Carrots contain substances such as magnesium, iron, selenium . Under the influence of microwaves these substances can cause a fire, not only dangerous to the user but also reduce the life of the microwave.

6. Canned meat

Canned meat often contains chemicals and preservatives to extend shelf life. These substances, if heated in a microwave, will promote the oxidation of cholesterol in ready-to-eat foods, causing cardiovascular diseases.

7. Rice

In rice, there are many highly resistant bacteria called Bacillus cereus - producing toxins that cause vomiting and diarrhea. Several studies have shown that when cooking rice in a microwave and heating it constantly and at room temperature, Bacillus cereus can multiply and cause food poisoning.

To prevent rice from being poisoned, cook in the usual way, use a rice cooker or bring to a boil and reduce the heat, maintaining the warmth until cooked.

8. Chicken

Chicken is at risk of Salmonella infection - a dangerous bacteria to human health. Therefore, chicken is always recommended to be well cooked to eliminate them. But with the microwave's mechanism of heating is to transfer heat from the inside out, not evenly cooked all parts of the meat, so bacteria have the ability to survive and cause harm.

9. Types of mushrooms

According to scientific researchers in the field of nutrition, mushrooms should not be put into the microwave to be cooked or reheated. When mushrooms are heated, the micronutrients inside will change into many compounds that cause indigestion in the stomach.

10. Water

You should not boil water in a microwave. When you take water out of the microwave is also the time bubbles form, easily shot at people causing burns.
