In this quick video, weâre going to talk about microwave ovens and nutrition. Is microwaving food bad for you?
The type of radiation that youâre getting with microwaves is non-ionizing radiation. Itâs still radiation, but itâs not as bad as getting a cat scan or x-rays.
Some long-term studies show that using the microwave may have a carcinogenic (cancer-causing) effect and produce cataracts in animals.
Using the microwave can reduce your nutrients from 5-40% or more depending on how long you cook the food in the microwave.
Other microwave side effects:
âą Increase the glucose/insulin response
âą Increase free radicals
âą Oxidize cholesterol
âą Release up to 44 different chemicals
What to do:
âą If youâre going to use the microwave, donât use it on a regular basis
âą Try to use it for the minimum amount of time
âą Do not cook in plastic

Dr. Berg, thank you first of all for your sense of humor! You take a serious subject and use humor to help your message sunk in!
I think on your nutritional counsel often. Sometimes I have applied it and it has helped me to stay healthy!
heat from the sun and visible light are "radiation"
exactly, people are mostly scared due to the word
What it seems you fail to understand is that long term use gradually worsens your health, starting at the first use
@@privatewars5039 I do sometimes fail to understand baseless claims
@EatRawmeat false. The sun emits microwave frequency, along with Xrays, gamma rays, and visible light, and infrared waves.
I mean yea thatâs kind of why people get skin cancer
Well, Iâm still not sure if microwave ovens are good or bad. I do know, however, that cooking meals on a gas stove makes me feel more like a chef.
eh you'll look sexy and get healthier
I think it depends on how we define good and bad. :) Microwaved meals certainly do not taste the same as non-microwave. Even in microwaved water, the quality is different and it cools down faster. These things are not good in my view, and have to have some cause behind them which is probably ... bad ... đŹ
It is nice to know how things work, though. I plan on using my microwave more sparingly, as he recommends.
You received this information and youâre still not sure if microwaves are bad or not? Wow smh.. itâs clear that your mother made your baby formula with tapwater microwaved it because it shows

Thank you for your reply and your interest in my comment.
First, I respect Dr. Eric Berg, and for this reason I've followed his channel for years. However, I'm not going to put my faith in his every single word. The evidence is not conclusive regarding the use of microwave ovens.
Second, my original comment wasn't so much about microwave oven use but my preference, instead, for gas stove cooking. Even other CZcamsrs got the gist of my comment but you seem to have failed in that regard.
Third, since you've replied to my comment but then purposely deleted it in a furtive attempt to take a cheap shot at me without others reading it, I've deliberately quoted you so that others can see the caliber of your personality.
Please use a measure of professionalism when communicating with others and learn to use proper grammar.
Thank you, and have a pleasant day!
@@KeepingOnTheWatch my comment is still above your reply for everyone to read. My comment stands true.
Hello Dr. Berg! Since my response has been solicited, it is an honour to finally share some news with you. When I decided to really try the ketogenic way, last October, it was your videos that really helped me learn the important fundamentals. You keep the information riveting and concise. What you have taught me has proven true. There were no photos nor scale measurement of me at my heaviest, right around a year ago, but estimates were in the 340 pounds area. I am a 6 foot 5 inch white male. I was more obese and perpetually uncomfortable than I had ever been. My schedule prevents exercise and quality sleep 4 days a week, and I knew I had to try another approach to return to the real me. Keto works. Intermittent fasting amplifies it, and occasional (not even monthly) extended water fasts, from 4 to 12 days, were shockingly easy, to my amazement. Last time I checked, about a month ago, I was 230 pounds. Stopping alcohol is quite important. I actively lose weight when I don't drink,, and maintain when I do. I take the following supplements based on your suggestions: vitamin K2; vtamin D3 in a largish dose; sea kelp; choline; vitamin CoQ10; omega fatty acid; sea kelp; potassium citrate; magnesium citrate; born; zinc; spirulina and apple cider vinegar.. It has been an incredible journey so far and your influence on this significant experiment was crucial. Still have a ways to go, but it goes remarkably smoothly. My 25 year old daughter also likes your advice and tutelage and has become much more healthy and lost weight. We're both very grateful for what we pick up through you.
Love your information!!! I have implemented numerous lifestyle changes due to your videos and look forward watching more. I cannot thank you enough:)
I read a Harvard Health article that suggested heating your food on the stove actually reduced nutrients because its all about how long food is heated that determines how many nutrients are destroyed. In other words, if you heat the food in 2 minutes youâll destroy fewer nutrients than if it takes 20 minutes. Also, the way microwaves work is that they vibrate water molecules and that vibration causes friction which heats the food. The waves only affect the water molecules, not any nutrient molecules.
It would be good to know the actual mechanism (the physics) that supposedly damages nutrients in a microwave, please explain.
Would like to correct a tiny bit here: Heat is directly correlated to the speed of movement the molecules are moving. so if the molecules begin to move faster due to whatever reason, you have a raise in heat already. true for the opposite, molecules that are still means -273 Kelvin. no harvarding needed here, just remembering my own physics class.

So would you use a microwave or not?
this video has some grade a bullcrap inserted in it. it does not compare the loss of nutrients to that of pan cooking. Of course a broccoli has more nutrients raw than cooked, doesnât matter how you cook it. Most of the B vitamins leech out of meat in juices, and Vitamin C is also not preserved in cooked lemon juice. Doesnât matter if itâs a microwaved or not. conventional ovens reach higher temperatures than microwaves. Food in pans reaches higher temperatures than microwaves. Very high temperatures alter the molecular binds especially in fats. Some of these alterations are referred to as the Maillard Reaction and itâs one of the main reasons why cooked food can taste amazing. Microwaves are often incapable of producing Maillard Reactions because they do not heat the fats themselves, and because they donât reach high enough temperatures. This is why food cooked in a microwave from scratch tastes awful. The other weird thing about microwaves is how it heats bread, it makes it chewy and horrible. But also boiling bread in water makes it horrible. Does that mean that you should never boil an egg in water ever again?
Microwaves do cause foods to carcinogenic nor reduce the nutrients in foods, not anymore than conventional cooking. In fact, the most potent carcinogen from cooking is char, burned food. And itâs impossible to burn food in the microwave, while alternatively we constantly eat burned food from pans and stove ovens. But even burned food, though a proven carcinogen, does not imply that eating the occasional burned toast, or the gravy of a super seared steak and half burned carrots will make you die of cancer in two months.
Everyone needs to calm down about trying to figure out whatâs healthy. The healthiest thing to do is often to look for other criteria than health. Like, cook food that you find delicious. Instead of obsessing about micronutrients that you probably donât understand the first thing about.
@@johnnysecular if theyâre not harmful why to doctors advise pregnant women not to stand in front of them
@@luluah1198 great point. This not the first time I have heard they cause cateracts and that it's bad to use plastic in the microwave. I heard all of this way before I started seeing Dr. Berg.
I'd like to know about the studies behind this, because I've seen referenced claims that the microwave, because it heats food so quickly, is actually more nutrient sparing than steaming.
Me too! The contradictions are frustrating. It feels impossible to get a clear answer on this. I would really like to know because they are so convenient but want to minimise any sacrificing of health for convenience.
Iâd like to the know the studies behind anything he says
â@@jasperdunnyeah he doesn't explain how microwave cooking is worse, he just says it is. The videos explaining the science and citing research papers come to the opposite conclusion
What a bogus channel
@@jasperdunn What a bogus post!
No microwaves in my house, hasn't been for years, in fact we were called crazy! Be careful also on water in plastic bottles especially in warm weather, they boil up and release the chemical inside the plastic and goes in the water.
It's been about 11 years for me without a microwave. I heat food up on the stove or oven even if I'm eating left overs lol
Thank you Dr. B! Nettie Mitch, same for us...my husband has replaced the igniter a few times since we purchased our stove...lol
Ditto Rita. We boil water in a frying pan. The food we are re-heating in a covered glass bowl in the water in the pan. 19 - 12 minutes good to go.
Greenskeeper, thanks for that tip.
Speaking of hot water and plastic. I also try to avoid using a conventional coffee maker. My old one is made of 95% plastic. Use a french press or porcelain pour over funnel is better
Where are the links to the science? The studies?
Good point.
@Hippy Dippy anytime you post information such as this, you are required to link the sources you are siting.
@@keenfire8151 he has no links to show.
Microwave and Wi-fi generally operate on the same 2.4GHz frequency. Microwave are safe...
@@ClaudiaVejaImages I know they are. The point of my questions are to purposely call him out for false information.
@@keenfire8151 he is ignoring this side of things when he's not right. He loves too much the deep appreciation from those how still believe him, but I understand.
You are the way, the light. Iâve never dieted once and I am 47 yo. Since removing sugar, caffeine, and the majority of carbs from my diet I am sleeping more soundly and have less cravings. Iâve been so jacked up on sugar and caffeine over the years when I came off of the two I instantly started taking naps. My eyes got tired for the first time since childhood. Man how wired have I been not really realizing it. Thanks a bunch...
Wasnât there an experiment about how in certain foods, microwaving actually keeps more nutrients in certain foods in comparison to boiling?
yes, microwave was 2nd best to steaming
I remember it too
Source?
Can you point me to any scientific studies proving that microwaves decrease nutrients?
Heating food dose that NOT the microwave !
@@block36079 The video from a few days ago where he said avocado oil has potassium in it (it does not, the fruit part does) was the last straw for me, I unsubscribed. He's a nice man, but needs to fact-check prior to putting this material up.
@@block36079 "7 benefits of avocado oil" from a week ago. Several viewers challenged him on this statement and I dont think he ever replied or corrected. I admire people who admit to a mistake. We are all human and make mistakes. He does present a lot of good info, I just hope folks realize he can be mistaken at times. I have heard others make the statement about microwaves being bad, I just do not see how heating this way is any worse than other methods of cooking in terms of nutrients, so wanted to see the science.
references are on his website
Thx like the tips....for sure your keto basics videos started me on a road to better health and Iâm grateful
Dearest Dr Berge, Thank you for your endless wisdom. This video has finally helped me convince my teenager and her friends of the dangers of too much microwaving †You're the best!!! Love from the UK đŹđ§
Doctor Berg insights have given me a new lease in life. Lost 12kg in 12 weeks and gained so much more energy and focus. Health professionals are surprised at my extent of knowledge through mere conversation. All from Doctor Berg.
I owe this man so much. Loss of weight, cessation of migraine episodes and an overall improved well being.
I had seen multiple 'experts' for various ailments and paid considerable sums of money. But over 6 months with doctor Berg videos, all were treated at nil cost.
I hope I can repay the man in some way one day.
why? lots of it can and it may here. if you are scared of a microwave better not touch your cell phone or ride a plane ever again. many people don't know how a microwave works and thus use it the wrong way. if you reheat your food on the stove on max heat in a frying pan it will get burned and loose nutrients too. gentle and therefore longer cooking applies to microwaving aswell as reheating. or on max watts, take the food out for a stirr and wait a little before putting it back in? after all the process is the same as with conventional heating. from the outside in. anyway your advice is still good to not overuse or exclusively rely on microwaved foods. moderation is a healthy way of life.
I do appreciate your time on all these topics. They are direct and to the point, followed with good advice. Thank you Doc for your time, all the best
Hello. Glad to know that you liked this video by Dr. Berg. Thank you for watching.
-Dr. Berg's Support Team
Straight to the point. Thanks Doc. Keep it up
I personally stopped using a microwave at least 10 years ago and no longer own one. I reheat food in a covered pan or the oven if necessary just like the good ol' days. If I'm out for dinner and aware that a dish is microwaved I will not order it. There was no mention of the radiolytic compounds produced by microwaving which results in free radicals and oxidation which was briefly touched on, but I guess a lesson on radiolysis would make the video longer and unnecessarily more complex. Good short, sweet and to the point video. Thanks for your efforts Dr. Berg.
I am a microwave and i find this offensive
Wow that's huge thank you.
Your videos are great. Quick to the point a lot of information.
Always a good source of information keep it coming and more power to your videos.
Iâve hesitated to use an instapot for the same reason. Iâve always had a gut feeling you would loose a lot of nutrients cooking your food at that high of a temp and pressure. Have there been any studies on nutrients being lost from using Insta pots?
Please give us your sources for these claims.
FDA police man spotted
@@AP-bo1if He is right. What has FDA has to do with anything. FDA didn't invent Microwaves.
He's an FAA guy disguised as an FDA guy
@@AP-bo1if Come now... that's not productive at all. He's serious. Not including sources is one of the most damning things to a person trying to help people be healthy. Most people don't want to do without something that has made their life easy. They aren't being police. They are skeptical for another reason. We are all slaves to our own biases and egos and if you can do anything better to help someone understand the dangers of something, and the information is valid and rational, you need sources and scientific evidence.
On the other hand I know it's sometimes easier to maintain ignorance and not trust science if doing without it and adopting credulity does no perceivable harm, but if a skeptic can test it or read more about it makes it easier to digest for them since they cannot rely on simple credulity. We need more people willing to take the steps needed to show sources and point others in a direction so that they can learn the truth themselves rather than just adopting credulity, then jumping on someone and calling them police or a shill... that behavior is not helpful to the health of the skeptic, and it's irrational and apathetic as well.
Is it wrong to search for these sources, and then list them here... for those who are adept at that...? I mean, search and list it here smart folk, help the rest of us out.

What about exposure during the cooking process ? Is standing near or within a certain distance of device during use harmful ?
My husband uses a small toaster oven at work to warm food. He initially started microwaving his food when he took that job 30 years ago. Within months I noticed significant aging in his face. I began cooking for him to take homecooked and often homegrown food while he is away 3-4 nights weekly. That has worked well. Takes a little time but is so much healthier, judging by the lines in his face that started forming while he was microwaving and pretty much went away after some months of eating the food I cook for him to take.
Does he fly a lot for his work?
@@googlespies No, he drove a lot because we chose to not raise our children in the city, so he communted. Last two years he works remote from home.

How do microwave ovens cause cataracts - was not mentioned??
@Marcus Middleton We have to be careful of just believing everything we hear, just because we watch someone on a show. Clear evidence needs to be provided
Bad info on this video. Microwaves do NOT cause cancer, cataracts of other stuff like that. Any heating will take nutrition out of the food...
Microwaves are literally the same frequency used by cellphones and Bluetooth technology, 2.4ghz. That radio frequency is used to speed up the water molecules in the food, and that creates the heating. Heating/ cooking will lower Nutrients in Food and for that reason microwave are actually better then longer exposure to heat, except when using plastic containers which can release chemicals !
Thanks for the info, I'll take heed. Do you suppose warnings will eventually appear on wrappers?
Is there a difference between cooking and just reheating?
Can you link some studies about this? Or the articles that you got this information from?
No, he can't because what he said is all false or otherwise misleadingly explained.
Non-ionizing radiation can have a carcinogenic effect. True! But it's true if you live in a microwave, it's totally safe outside.
Microwaves reduce nutrients. True! They do it like any other cooking method, indeed less
Whereâre references?
Thanks for such information
I remember dr Berg made another Video about microwafe a while ago. There he said that microwave has almost no impact on losing nutrients on the food and is close to steaming the food. Microwave would even be less harmful then boiling. Does anyone remember?
Well I listened to Dr.Oz and Chris Kresser on this one, both said microwaves are safe just not for plastic. They had a researcher in there who tested food explained how they worked and said a microwave that has a good seal will not emit any radiation, and all it does is heat water molecules in the food. Had me convinced it was fine.
Dr. Oz should not be listened to

Ok so boiling also reduces nutrients. So the best way is steaming?
Yes.
Dr Berg, can you post the studies for us to share with our families? Back in the 80âs I heard microwaves were bad for you and stopped using them. About 20 years ago I heard they can increase estrogen in both men and women. About 15 years ago I started a diet to lose weight and prepped everything on Sun and would freeze them so I would have my 5 meals a day thru the week. I decided to use the microwave just till I lost the weight. Approx 10 weeks in, I had a period after being postmenopausal for 4 years. Went to the gynecologist. She asked if I just spotted. Nope, it was a full blown 5day cycle. She looked at me and said she couldnât figure out how I got enough estrogen to have one! Bingo! I remembered what that guy said years ago. Last year I just found out it comes from nuking in plastic containers. Needless to say right after that I quit for good.

What time are you eating? You probably arenât eating enough, or enough of the filling foods. Fill up on a lot of fiber. Stay REALLY hydrated. I suggest eating mid day and/or eating 2 meals a day instead of one.
I want to thank you Dr. Berg...I have been watching your videos for a little over a year..Your videos have helped with lots of medical issues that some of my family is dealing with...The doctors most of the time do nothing but treat symptoms instead of treating the problem...I will keep watching and keep learning..Thanks again
Cell phones operate at the same 900mhz range as a microwave, though it is only .5 to 2 watts.
Your body is still effected by the radiation, its not going to be immediately noticable đ
Excelent Video Dr. Berg you are one of the kind . Thank you for all your recommendations đđđ
You're very welcome! Glad to help!
Is it better to use a high powered microwave for a short time or should I turn down the power and cook longer to attempt to reach a lower peak temp as the heat is conducted to the center?
The microwave also changes the taste of some food like peas, which will take on a mild sour taste when cooked in one. I once tried to see if I could make fried bananas in the microwave (with brown sugar and cinnamon on top), and they smelled strongly like white vinegar only 1 minute in. Needless to say, I didn't eat them.
Hi Dr. Berg, thank you for taking the time posting videos on a regular basis. Your videos have helped me to dramatically improve my health. If you get to read this I would love to ask you if you could possible do a video on the following topic:
What's the best diet for babies or infants? Do they really need to consume a certain amount of carbs in order to grow and develop the way they should? Is a somewhat ketogenic diet something that would also benefit infants and toddlers? Hope you get a chance to do a video on this topic sometime in the near future.
Many thanks and God Bless!

That's very interesting. Thanks Dr Berg. I would like to look into this in more detail. Do you have any scientific references
Dr Eric what about when I try to do the right thing by not microwaving my Marie Callender's chicken pot pie in the Box I decide to cook it in the oven but it's still has the paper cup that it comes in?
Dr. Berg supplies excellent, well-researched nutrition content for application of healthy eating guidelines with how-to practice points for increased quality of life as we age. Supplements and methods allowing the body to heal itself are expertly presented with all aspects to consider in his videos too.
Thank you Dr Berg for generously sharing your wealth of knowledge to help us live healthier lives!
Does it make any difference if you use defrost instead?
I heard that a microwave will change the structure of whatever is cooked or heated in it. I've had one for years, but have only used it for storage for about 11 years or so. As I need the storage space, I'll keep it.
I stopped using a microwave many years ago when I found out the nutrients are significantly decreased. I was told its not even food anymore. There is a book out that talks about looking at water crystals through a high-powered microscrope that says if negative words are spoken over water, or if water is heated up in a microwave, the crystals look like grotesque black dying images (as opposed to beautiful white snowflakes). A visual was enough for me. My apartment includes a microwave above the stove & its great to use for extra cupboard space-! I absolutely love my tea kettle to heat up hot water & to use my toaster oven to warm up food. It does not take long at all. đ
Reminds me of an experiment I read about. Plants given microwaved water died. That was the exact second I decided to never use one again.
Agreed. Also, I have a recent theory based on research of family members. It appears that you become an easier to program bot type human if you consume microwaved foods everyday. There appears to be some healing with perceptive awareness return & less tendecy to self delusion when whole natural foods return to the diet. I am perplexed by personality change in previously more aware family & there seems to be diet connection. I enjoy experimenting on myself as Ex 33yr nurse turned Whistleblower. I won't eat microwaved poop tho.
I know what created bot type humans đđđđđ Just look around now. So sad...
This is exactly why I got rid of our microwave about 15 years ago. Also, I brought a toaster oven to work for heating up my leftovers (instead of using the microwaves they provide for us)!
Dr. berg, can you do air fryer vs microwave ? What is disadvantage/advantage related to health ?
This was a really interesting video. Thank you, Dr. Berg , for teaching me so much from all the videos you've made.
Great now I can't heat up my food either in a microwave. Guess I'll carry a stove to work
LoL
No need. Microwaves are fine, your cell phone has more " radiation" then microwave can emitt from the capsule. Dr Berg is confuzing things here.
Not like itll kill you... immediately, just worsen your health overtime
@@ClaudiaVejaImages in the same way, cell phone radiation becomes increasingly toxic
If common sense wont convince you i'll keep the studies away from you till then đŹ
@@privatewars5039 Which studies are you referring tođ€?
Doctor, can you please talking counter convection oven? How is it ? And which one is the best to use without cause any problems for health?
Thank you.
May you be well.
