Theos-Talk Archives (August 2005 Message tt00324)

I don't know Mark, but one minute we are being told to cook with teflon and now we are being told not to use it. I personally believe that we use way too much plastic in the world and when plastic is overcooked, as in the case of microwaved, it sure doesn't look healthy to me. We have had tests done in Australia which are indicating that microwaves reach far and beyond the case and there have been some reported cases where these microwaves in fact can effect the pelvic regions, and that children should not be encouraged to wait for their food to heat standing next to the microwave, as these waves may enter the brain. I know it sounds far fetched, but here we are told that overuse of mobile phones is starting to cause hearing problems etc. As we are energy beings it sounds rational to me that other energy waves may impact on our bodies. Just a personal view which I cannot support with solid science.
