Ask Google:

 Does heating food kill nutrients?

Steaming and boiling caused a 22 percent to 34 percent loss of vitamin C. Microwaved and pressure-cooked vegetables retained 90 percent of their vitamin C. The bottom line is that no one cooking or preparation method is superior for preserving 100 percent of the nutrients in a vegetable.Oct 18, 2013
Is microwaving food bad for your health?

Microwaves are a safe, effective, and highly convenient cooking method. There is no evidence that they cause harm — and some evidence that they are even better than other cooking methods at preserving nutrients and preventing the formation of harmful compounds.Feb 15, 2019
