I will note, however, that the statement "microwaves are non-ionizing" does not automatically imply the common follow-up that "the absorption of microwaves cannot have any chemical effect other than indirectly through heating". This is evident, for example, in that proteins in the human eye undergo a chemical change in response to absorbing non-ionizing red light. Whether there is such a thing as a non-thermally microwave-driven chemical reaction is an open question in chemistry [1].
I feel the need to clarify as an addendum that nothing in this post suggests any danger associated with the use of low power microwave radiation from consumer wireless communication electronics.

It should put you at ease to know that as long as you don't microwave yourself there isn't much to worry about.
