1. No plastic containers in micro.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.
Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters.
This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Dioxin chemicals causes cancer,
especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies.
Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic.
Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital, was on a TV program to explain this
health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us.
He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This applies to foods that contain fat.
He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body.
Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the
dioxin.
So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc.,should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper
isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.
He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin
problem is one of the reasons.
Also, he pointed out that Saran wrap is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is
nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
!Important Information
I guess only freezed water, cuz they didn't mention cold water "if u just only cools water", the reason maybe when water is freezed it stuck with the plastic, so when it melts again it takes with it some of the plastic molecules & then mixed with the water molecules which causes releasing dioxins from the plastic...maybe that's the reason, not sure2. No water bottles in freezer.
What about translating it, insha'a Allah whenever i had time, i'll do that
