When it comes to reducing BPA exposure | |
and some of these forever | |
chemicals that you mentioned, | |
seems like reducing fluid intake | |
from plastic vessels | |
is going to be number one. | |
The primary source of BPA | |
is in the lining of cans. | |
So any drink, or soup, or | |
anything that comes in a can. | |
Any can, all cans? | |
Any can, unless it's a high-end, | |
you know, elite company | |
that's made the change from | |
BPA to an alternative lining, | |
and they'll say that. | |
So, and by the way, | |
BPA has some bad relatives | |
such as BPS and BPF. | |
And maybe you'd be | |
interested in this story. | |
So when it came out | |
that BPA was estrogenic, | |
which is what it is. | |
And by the way, | |
it's kind of the evil twin of | |
phthalates because phthalates | |
are anti-androgenic and BPA is estrogenic, | |
and phthalates make plastic | |
soft and BPA makes plastic hard. | |
You don't want either, okay. | |
So when this came out | |
that this was a bad thing, | |
the manufacturer started selling | |
things that say BPA-free. | |
I'm sure you've seen that. | |
The trick is that instead | |
of BPA, they use BPS. | |
Sneaky rats. | |
And BPF. | |
That's so sneaky. | |
And these are chemicals, | |
these are lookalikes, | |
they're analogs, and | |
they're just as harmful. |
