Is BPA-Free Plastic Safe?
Bisphenols are chemicals used to manufacture plastics and epoxy resins used in canned goods. Many plastic and canned products marketed as BPA-free actually contain similar replacement chemicals that studies show are just as harmful as BPA. Bisphenols contained in these plastic and canned containers seep into food where they can act as a powerful endocrine disruptor, meaning they interfere with the normal function of the body’s natural hormones.
