Wait, you're recommending a microwave instead of old fashion cooking that holds the nutrients better in the food much better and you have Park Seed advertising which sell hybrid seeds for better resistance to disease. Sounds like GMO and GE all in one. Just saw the move www.futureoffoods.com you should look into this if you really want to be an environmentally friendly website. Thank you

The objections to microwave cooking are mostly hysterical nonsense. Heat breaks down nutrients, whether it's through convection cooking, or a microwave oven. As for Park Seeds, our position on the superiority of organic and traditional farming methods is clear. I'm sure you shop at places which sell things failing the green litmus test. We expect our readers to be intelligent enough to make informed decisions, and make no apologies for our environmental credentials.

there are multiple studies that show eating microwaved foods instantly causes high blood pressure and anxiety... Please read Dr. Mercola's article on this at: http://www.mercola.com/article/microwave/hazards....
Like what you guys did with Wordpress here, nice site!

I'm glad you referenced that article, since it's representative of the pseudo-scientific hokum floating around the backwaters of the internet about the supposed "risks" of microwave cooking.

It begins by pointing out the obvious: After decades of microwave cooking, there is no peer-reviewed research showing it to be fundamentally different from heating foods with electricity or fossil fuels. The article then resorts to a motherly "sixth sense" that something must be wrong with microwave cooking, anyway.

There are two frequently cited sources in anti-microwave literature, both of which are mentioned in this article: a largely apocryphal story about Norma Levitt, an Oklahoma woman who allegedly died as the result of receiving a microwaved blood transfusion; and a "Swiss clinical study" conducted by Hans Ulrich Hertel and Bernard H Blanc.

In the Levitt case, it was found that the patient died from a blood clot, not as the result of blood somehow spoiled by microwave heating. You'll find a copy of the malpractice suit declaration here: http://wyomcases.courts.state.wy.us/applications/... .

The eccentric Swiss "study" has been universally discredited for its lack of scientific merit (in particular, there was no control group). It wound its way through European courts for years. Hans Ulrich Hertel, who administered the affair, is apparently an agronomist by trade. Bernard H Blanc has since repudiated Hertel's findings. You'll find some discussion of this topic on Snopes.

So much of what is mentioned in that article is simply comical. Microwaves break down the human "life-energy field?" They cause magnetic deposits in the lymphatic system? Preposterous.

Microwave cooking scares have long been fodder for internet email hoaxes and fringe websites. The fact that there's lots of stuff "out there" doesn't mean it has any value. While we must remain open to future research on the topic, there is so far no good reason to believe microwave cooking presents any different risk than conventional food preparation.

But we're with you on WordPress. It's amazing what you can do with it these days. :)
