• BPA Free Baby Bottle Review - ThinkBaby Baby Bottles: Good review of thinkbaby bpa free baby bottles. What about the color?
• BPA and the FDA | Seventh Generation: well over 200 independent government and academic studies have reached the conclusion that exposure to this endocrine-disr upting chemical (BPA) can trigger all kinds of problems from cancer and reproductive disorders to hyperactivity and diabetes. And just two (count 'em, two) studies, both sponsored by the chemical industry, that say there's no problem with a little BPA in your baby formula or your soda pop. See if you can guess which research the FDA emphasized and which it largely ignored.

• Just How Harmful Are Bisphenol-A Plastics?: First synthesized in 1891, bisphenol-A came into use as a synthetic estrogen in the 1930s. Later, chemists discovered that, combined with phosgene (used during World War I as a toxic gas) and other compounds, BPA yielded the clear, polycarbonate plastic of shatter-resist ant headlights, eyeglass lenses, DVDs and baby bottles. But during the manufacturing process, not all BPA gets locked into chemical bonds, explains Tim A. Osswald, an expert in polymer engineering at the University of Wisconsin?Madi son. That residual BPA can work itself free, especially when the plastic is heated, whether it?s a Nalgene bottle in the dishwasher, a food container in the microwave, or a test tube being sterilized. In recent years dozens of scientists around the globe have linked BPA to myriad health effects in rodents: mammary and prostate cancer, genital defects in males, early onset of puberty in females, obesity and even behavior problems such as attention-defi cit hyperactivity disorder.
