When you buy a microwave oven for your kitchen, you will most likely read the instructions for its use. It usually says in what dish and in what form you can reheat food. Some manufacturers also write small lists where they indicate what should not be reheated. Let's see why some foods should not be microwaved.
Instructions
Step 1
Of course, the mother of an infant does not have as much time as she would like, but do not be tempted to heat breast milk in the microwave. In this case, the growth of E. coli increases.
Step 2
Fresh garlic, after being processed in a microwave oven, loses its anti-cancer properties. And it loses its ability to retain its aroma for a long time.
Step 3
Protein foods such as cheese, fish, and others should also not be microwaved. Protein molecules are destroyed, and no longer bring any benefit to our body.
Step 4
Do not microwave any food in plastic containers or plastic wrap. In a very small amount, toxins from the package are added to it. It may not be immediately noticeable, but if you regularly take food with you to work in a container and warm it up in it, think about it.
Step 5
Broccoli loses more than ninety-seven percent of its nutrients after microwaving.
Step 6
Frozen meat, when processed in the microwave, also becomes less useful. Vitamins are destroyed in it, the growth of bacteria increases.
Step 7
Frozen fruits and berries also made the list. The glucose contained in them turns into a carcinogen.
Step 8
Any food that has a tight package, rind, or shell. These products include eggs, watermelon, tomatoes. In such products, the volume inside the shell increases sharply, which can lead to an explosion.
