ROTFFL!!!

Why not PROVE your ridiculous theory by putting your head into a microwave oven!

I said this was a simplification. The point is that maximum absorption
occurs in the 30 to 300 MHz range. Microwave frequencies are used for
cooking because they are more practical to produce, not because they
are more effective at heating.

See the ANSI (American National Standards Institute) exposure limits
curve below:

Greatest rf absorption (minimum allowable exposure) is in the 30 to
300 MHz range.
