Dr. Edward
Fujimoto from Castle Hospital on the program.
He is the manager of the Wellness Program at the hospital. He
was talking 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 dioxins into
the food and ultimately into the cells of the body.
Dioxins are carcinogens and highly toxic to the cells of our
bodies.
Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware, or ceramic
containers for heating food. You get the same results without the
dioxins.
So such things as TV dinners, instant saimin 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.
Just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.
He said we might remember when some of the fast food
restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper.
The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.
To add to this: Saran wrap placed over foods as they are nuked,
with the high heat, actually drips poisonous toxins into the food!
Use a paper towel!!
