We have many sayings in scripture and by great philosophers and thinkers and noble men but there are certain truths that are eternally true and hold profound wisdom and yet seem very simple to hear or to do. We selected three such for now ..
-
What you sow, so shall you reap !
-
In giving you shall receive !

As he thinks within himself, so is he !

Food Regulatory Authority in USA on Microwaving ??
We all know leftovers are handy and save time. What could be easier than grabbing that plastic bowl from the fridge and tossing it in the microwave to heat up? In 30 seconds you’ve got hot food and minimal clean up. It sounds simple. But is it safe? more
We all know leftovers are handy and save time. What could be easier than grabbing that plastic bowl from the fridge and tossing it in the microwave to heat up? In 30 seconds you’ve got hot food and minimal clean up. It sounds simple. But is it safe?
The questions about safety are regarding substances found in plastics such as diethylhexyl adipate (DEHA), and dioxins. DEHA is what makes plastic flexible, and dioxin is a substance found naturally in water, animal fats and soil and is known to cause cancer. The theory is that when plastic is heated in the microwave the heat actually leaches these substances into your food.
According to the FDA, any substances used to make plastics that touch food are classified as "food contact substances" and must be found safe before they can even be put on the market. While they do agree that the substances in plastics can leach into food, the levels of DEHA that might be consumed are well below any levels that warrant concern and were found to be safe in animal studies. The FDA carefully reviews how much leaching takes place and ensures that it stays within safe levels. As for dioxins, the FDA says there really is no evidence that plastic containers and plastic wrap would contain dioxins at all.

Better to be safe than sorry. I have changed to glass containers for microwaving.

We not only don't microwave in plastic we no longer store left overs in it either, we have stainless water botttles and try to use as little plastic as possible! We switched several years ago and have noticed any number of benifits in being plastic free , by the time my parents were my age they had the beginnings of cancers and the first signs of Dementia! They both lived into their 90's but wiithout the health they should have had, here's hoping I can change that!

The approval of the FDA means nothing to me. They also approve the use of meds that do more harm than good..how many kids heat food in the microwave without any instructions? how many baby bottles have been heated in there?

I knew this before it became common knowledge. Why does it take the FDA so long to inform us?
Here is our tip on microwaving –
Do not eat food heated in a microwave oven or avoid as much as you can. Nobody knows all the long term effects it can cause. Its possible to relate to or accelerate in onset of diseases of old age…Its better to avoid microwaving completely. collapse

Summary - Even though we get bombarded by news and information, we do mostly believe what we see more and/or what we hear often! Worse yet, if it comes from a reputable source, we assume it’s the gospel truth! Unfortunately, the information or the analysis may not have the whole truth and the complete truth! more
