DIOXINS From Plastic
g our food in the microwave usingplastic containers. This applies to foods that contain fat. He said thatthe combination of fat, high heat and plastics releases dioxins into thefood and ultimately into the cells of the body. Dioxins are carcinogensand highly toxic to the cells of our bodies. Instead, he recommends usingglass, Corning Ware, or ceramic containers for heating food. You get thesame results without the dioxins.
So ! ! such things as TV dinners, weight watchers dinners, lean cuisinedinners, instant ramen cup of noodles, and soups, etc., should be removedfrom the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but youdon't know what is in the paper. Just safer to use tempered glass, CorningWare, etc.
He said we might remember when some of the fast food restaurants moved awayfrom the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of thereasons. To add to this: saran wrap placed over foods as they are nuked,with the high heat, actually drips poisonous toxins into the food, so usepaper towels instead.
