I stumbled across some sites that state it's not healthy to eat microwaved food.
How true is this?

Hmmm, I remember reading something like this too, but can't find anything now... :-?

I do know that you have to be careful when microwaving food that is wrapped in cling-film: some types of cling film can leach toxins into the food.

I think those sites are mostly exaggerated, they claim that microwaves change molecular structure of the food.

I've always thought that eating microwave food has got to be F-ing me up in some way or another. . .

I'm sure we won't find out for another 20 years or so.

I have discussed that to a doctor friend of mine and he told me that heating food in a microwave oven can kill some of the nutrients that food has...
