Subject: Fw: Cancer News from Johns Hopkins:
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,
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.
This is an article I believe you should forward to
Your family and friends -- anyone who is important in your life!

I guess I will nuke that Steak on a styrofoam plate w/saran wrap over it to keep those harmless "dioxin" chemicals in. Also plan to wash it down with frozen water from a plastic bottle.
