What happens if your microwave leaks radiation?
Online Answer
FDA regulations actually allow for a small amount of leakage from microwaves, about 5 mW/cm2. The radiation itself is non-ionising so won't damage your DNA directly, rather it will excite the water within your soft tissues. The FDA does warn that high exposure to microwaves can lead to a painful burn.
