bisphenol A

The government of Canada has looked at scientific studies and data on the safety of bisphenol A (BPA) and proposes to designate this chemical as “toxic” under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA).

A new study released by a government institution found that exposure at low doses of BPA may lead to breast and prostate cancer.

Chemicals are part of our lives but there are ways to avoid them.

A study made by EWG revealed that there is Bisphenol A (BPA) in infant formula at levels that produce significant harm in animals.

This is a review of baby bottle free of BPA and bottle that wwere found to leach BPA at harmful levels.

So I decided to try several different BPA free sippy cups and see which ones made the grade. I reviewed the Klean Kanteen, Sigg, Born Free, Foogo, and Avent Naturally sippy cups/bottles. You will hear what I think and what my kids think. So let the battle begin….may the best sippy cup win.

The suspected hormone mimic has been implicated in a host of problems, from cancer to obesity. It is currently under fire. It is also more common than you might think.

You can't taste it or smell it, but if you ate canned soup for lunch or sipped from a shiny transparent water bottle at the gym, a chemical called bisphenol A probably entered your body. The American Chemistry Council tells us that bisphenol A makes our lives "healthier and safer, each and every day." But accumulating scientific research indicates the chemical may be adversely affecting women's ability to have children and children's reproductive health. Recent studies link bisphenol A to obesity, breast and prostate cancer, and neurological disorders.
