I know the microwave thing is one of the more controversial topics on KS...and sometimes I wonder if it's worth it...but I suppose it probably won't kill us either way, eh? ;) Thanks for the kind compliment! :) katie Lucy

The New York Times took a look at the research and summed it up here: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/17/health/17real.html?adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1312901206-1lqk824Xtf2TECYwoYFplg But I will remain a faithful reader!

In fact, she cooked everything in her new Amana microwave & even took a microwave cooking class back in the '80s at the local grocery store! Weird! But thankful for this site- now to find a steamer basket!

I would like to read up on what the scientific basis is for the claim that broccoli loses up to 85% of its nutritional value when microwaved. I don't actually microwave broccoli myself, I prefer to roast most veggies, but I am interested on how such research was conducted (I am a scientist myself, if you can't tell :-) Thanks! Katie,
