Are microwaves dangerous?
Microwave-heated food is perfectly safe to eat.
Microwaves, unlike some other higher-radiating radiofrequencies, operate at a frequency that is not hazardous.
As a measure of precaution, if the door on the microwave oven does not close tightly or is twisted, deformed, or otherwise damaged, do not use it.
Also, try not to stand directly in front of the microwave for lengthy periods of time to avoid any injuries in case of malfunction.
