Microwave fields are incapable of inducing non-thermal effects on the human body.
PMID: Bioresour Technol. 2003 Apr ;87(2):155-9. PMID: 12765354 Abstract Title: Bioeffects of microwave–a brief review. Abstract: Since the 18th century scientists have been intrigued by the interaction of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and various life processes. Attention has been focussed on EMFs in different frequency ranges, of which microwave frequency range forms an important part. Microwaves …
