Why we ditched the Nuker...

My name is Courtney Walsh and I do not own a microwave. Yes, it's true. I do not cook with a microwave nor have one of those megatrons in my home. I know, I know... it's pretty crazy. I actually enjoy doing things the old fashioned way and somewhere in time I've become very passionate about living a microwave free lifestyle.

Getting rid of the nuker will take some adjustments, especially because of our technologically dependent lifestyle. If you think about it, this piece of equipment truly revolutionized the kitchen in E-mer-i-c-a (said with texas accent), I read over 95% of homes in E-mer-i-c-a have one and over 10% have more than one. But a stovetop/oven can do EVERYTHING that a microwave can. EVERYTHING. Although, it will take a few minutes more out of your day, the benefits in my opinion far out weigh the cost.

Ten Reasons not to Use Your Microwave Oven
Based on Swiss, Russian and German clinical studies
"http://www.health-science.com/microwave_hazards.html">

Continually eating food processed from a microwave oven causes long term, permanent, brain damage by "shorting out" electrical impulses in the brain [de-polarizing or de-magnetizing the brain tissue].

The human body cannot metabolize [break down] the unknown by-products created in micro-waved food.

Male and female hormone production is shut down and/or altered by continually eating micro-waved foods.

The effects of micro-waved food by-products are residual [long term, permanent] within the human body.

Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients of all micro-waved food is reduced or altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit, or the human body absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken down.

The minerals in vegetables are altered into cancerous free radicals when cooked in a microwave oven.

Micro-waved foods cause stomach and intestinal cancerous growths [tumors]. This has been a primary contributor to the rapidly increased rate of colon cancer in the United States.

The prolonged eating of micro-waved foods causes cancerous cells to increase in human blood.

Continual ingestion of micro-waved food causes immune system deficiencies through lymph gland and blood serum alterations.

Eating micro-waved food causes loss of memory, concentration, emotional instability, and a decrease of intelligence.

At this point, I'm really enjoying living a microwave free lifestyle. It's economical and it's been easier to transition to healthier eating. Less processed foods = more raw love <3 I hope I can keep it up once the kiddies come along... I might cave... nooo, I will be strong!
