Why using microwave is not advisable for anyone? Because there are some restrictions that we have to know before using Microwave for cooking. Microwave is a cooking tools that use for heat up our food or cooking for some menu. Like its name, Microwave work with micro wave radiation with various frequency, mostly work at 2.5 Ghz. That micro-wave emit radiation on sugar, water and fat inside our food and create the heat.
Dangers of Microwave Oven – Microwave Restrictions – How To Use Microwave Safely?
- Do not use Stainless steel or metal container when heating any food. It can damage the Microwave.
- Do not put any spoon / fork / knife or other tools inside Microwave especially that created from Stainless steel or metal. The non-microwavable plastic tools also may damage when Microwave work.
- Do not use Microwave for cooking or heating if we use pacemaker for normalize the heart rhythm. Please stay away using Microwave cooking device.
- Do not heating water with Microwave. The water will very fast to super-heating. The boiling water may explode when we move out from Microwave and causing injury.

Don’t Worry, Microwave Oven Still Have Many Advantages:
Beside all demerits about Microwave, there are still some advantages when we use Microwave for Cooking. This is the advance technology that use electricity to generate the electromagnetic waves known as micro-waves. If compare with traditional cooking stove, using Microwave can save processing time become faster. We can reduce the heating process time about 25% faster with Microwave (depend on food type).
