Question about radiation
Hi doctors, i am not sure if this is the right forum to ask but as this was regarding my health so wanted to post here.
As far as I know microwave ovens do not change the structure of the molecules which makes them non-ionising radiation. I am aware that ionising is the one which affects our dna.
So my question is, as I use microwave oven to cook rice(15-18minutes), is that safe?
I have read microwave oven is safe in some places and unsafe in other places.
Please shed some light on this. If its bad I will avoid using oven for cooking rice.
