“they can produce harmful radiation, so they should not be used in close proximity to human beings or pets. “

According to my daughter-in-law the microwaves destroy all the enzymes in the food, destroying its nutrition.

I read about uWave testing awhile ago, and it sounded very slanted towards the manufacturers POV.
Something like 200 pounds of water in a sack put near the uWave, and then see how much the unit raises the water temperature. If not raised too much, then voila... it's safe.
Not so reassuring to humans that are less than 200 lbs, like women and kids. Not so reassuring to any human of any weight that has bodies with substances within besides water.
