There's a lot of nonsense in this article, and it's important to take this source in context. Joseph Mercola is a crackpot who claims that microwaving food is dangerous[1], that HIV is not the cause of AIDS[2], that vaccines cause autism[3], and a lot of other patently false bullshit. That doesn't mean everything he says is false, but it does mean that what he says has about as much chance of being true as what you hear shouted by a crazy guy on the subway.<p>[1] <a href="http://www.mercola.com/article/microwave/hazards2.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.mercola.com/article/microwave/hazards2.htm</a><p>[2] <a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2001/07/11/aids-part-one.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2001/07/1...</a><p>[3] <a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/08/06/Proof-That-Thimerosal-Induces-AutismLike-Neurotoxicity.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/08/0...</a>
