Infrared oven cooking refers to cooking food using invisible light energy. When light waves hit the foods the food molecules begin to vibrate and heat up. According to Prevention, the infrared technology used in microwaves does not have cancer threats, because they do not have sufficient power to damage your DNA.
In conduction cooking the heat surrounds the food and produces a golden brown on the outside, and even cooking on the inside. Convection circulates the heat around the food, but this type of cooking takes longer than infrared.
