Yes the wave in the Microwave can cause cancerous cells to grow in your food, and then you go and consume that food, which can give you Cancer.

Why that is super scary when you think about because food suppose to carry good nutrient. But, here is where it gets more scarier then ever. And we are only talking about food here, as I know there are other things as well.
So, Coffee Talk has a list of nine items that can give you cancer. Therefore, please consider reading further into this article and do share with someone you care about because Coffee Talk care about you, and would love for you to spread the word.
Six foods that are most likely to cause "Cancer" :(
1. Microwavable Popcorn: Did you know that it's the chemicals that is places inside the bag. So, when you pop the bag in the microwave and turn it on, the heat is releasing the chemicals, which is also getting on the flavoring and in your pop corn. What is this chemical called? perfluorooctanoic acid, and this chemical has been linked to causing: Kidney, bladder, liver pancreas and testicular cancers. What? they in turn call this "Popcorn lungs because it causes your lungs to collapses,which in turns makes it hard for you to breathe. * (Hint: if you really want to enjoy a bag of popcorn, simply go to the $ store and get a pack of brown lunch bags, and a bag of popcorn.) Coffee Talk will post a recipe for Homemade Microwave popcorn very soon.
2. Canned Goods: Yikes! when we think buying canned foods is inexpensive, which it is. We have to become more fully aware of the chemicals once again, placed inside the cans. As the companies lined the cans with a chemical called, bisphenol-A, or for better terms BPA. And this chemical has been linked to causing Breast cancer, Prostate cancer,infertility, early puberty, metabolic disorders and type-2 diabetes, and that's been found by the Breast cancer foundation. But, what seem more so the problem are canned tomatoes. And that's because it's high in acidity, which causes the chemical BPA to latch from the can straight to the tomatoes. Now if you want tomatoes, it's best to get to either grow them yourself, or buy them from the grocery store.
3. Salmon: Lets make that farmed raised salmon. Once again yet another scary moment. What is it about the farmed raised salmon that cases cancer. Salmon has been dye with chemicals contain with high levels of PCBS, Mercury and Dioxin--and those are three-cancer causing chemicals. Which give the salmon its pinkish coloring. Therefore, if you want Salmon its best to go out and catch it yourself, or buy wild Salmon because it more healthier, and they're lower omega-3 fatty acids.
4. Hydrogenated Oils: Yes! we may not have yet covered this. but, Processed foods are loaded with Hydrogenated oils, and hydrogenated oils are used as a preserve processed foods. As theses oils help to give the food, a much appealing look to keep it from spoiling faster,than any other food. Those's oils hold high levels of omega-6 fatty acids, which can causes heart disease and increase the risk of various malignancies, particularly skin cancer. Now Coffee Talk is not telling you to omit omega-6 from your diet because your body still needs some omega-6, allowing with omega-3. So, what is your best choice when it comes to find oil. Coffee Talk says: "Olive Oil"
5. Processed foods: I Katrina knows how everyone feels right about now, Coffee Talk just brought up the word processed foods, and what does that word normally link to? Meats. Like, Hot dogs, Sausages, and etc. Why? processed meats holds a lot of chemicals and preservatives, that includes sodium nitrates. This salt is found in a lot of processed meats and red meats a lone.
6. Breads: Why who all love to have a sandwich every now, and then? I know you all love it, and so does Katrina. But, did you know that the bread, you and Katrina consume have chemicals in them. Now what type of chemical are inside the bread? This chemical is: potassium bromate, potassium bromate is found inside the flour, as this helps whiten the bread. As this chemical is linked to nervous-system disorders.
