Absolutely NOT! All cooking that involves heat and water will reduce the amounts of certain vitamins and micronutrients: those that are temperature sensitive and water-soluble. But it has been shown, over and over again, in well-documented research published in peer-reviewed journals, that microwave cooking is at least as good as, or better than any other form of cooking, in terms of retaining as many nutrients as possible. The web is filled with misinformation about this. This is something I know a great deal about because I'm a microwave scientist who deals with this kind of issue.
