Microwave Oven Radiation: Is It Harmful?

Microwave Oven Radiation: Is It Harmful?

microwave

Microwaves meeting legal standards should not emit radiation more than 5 milliwatts per square centimeter (2 inches around the microwave). Supposedly, this emission is less than what you get from using a cellular phone.
Also standing 2 feet away from the microwave will reduce radiation by 100 times than standing 2 inches away (New York Times, 2007).
