  1. I have a lot of white dental fillings that must contain BPA but there is no way to remove them. BPA is now being replaced with BPS which is just as toxic.

    1. YOUR dental fillings probably (or many people's) have mercury … and that has not been band either. Beside, there are many other plastics used in food that are full with toxic chemicals, with similar properties to destroy our bodies. SO, DO NOT USE ANY PLASTIC (wrap, or other kinds) with food. use: glass, ceramic/pocelain or terracota, stain st. etc… save items.

  2. If you just stop using plastic water bottles and plastic food storage containers – then you already have removed a great deal of your exposure!

  3. yes, use other kind like ceramic, porcelain, glass*** oven proof, st. steel, etc.. NO PLASTICS OF ANY KIND WITH FOOD. all are 'artificially man made' and full with toxics chemicals.

  4. Just use your common sense on the matter. If plastic is bad for you….ovoid using plastic. 🙂

  5. I recently read that BPA is also found in receipt paper.

    Yes. BPA and BPS is in the so-called safe alternatives-to-mercury, dental fillings, and it is easily activated in the oral environment. Here’s a scan from the paper version of the trade journal American Laboratory, March 2014. In table 1, it lists all the ingredients (you may have to enlarge it to read). Some of the leaching issues are listed on the top right paragraph. The next page of the article states (paragraph 2): “…the biological compatibility of the components and their effects on human health are often an issue. Some ingredients may cause chronic pulpitis, irritate oral tissues, show bacterial growth inhibitory effects, or lead to allergic reactions. Furthermore, cytotoxic, genotoxic, mutagenic, or estrogenic effects may be casued by monomers or filling materials released from the composite materials” (even though your dentist and the FDA will say it’s safe).

      (Java – I’m a year late in my reply here, but Natural Society had this article linked in their recent newsletter. Since I had this info at my fingertips, I figured this was as good of a place as any to stick it for all to see).

  7. I can understand most of the studies but the one in obesity is pretty misunderstood. Let’s think about it. Bpa is found in mostly all canned and processed food packages …right? So, increase in bpa In urine is really just telling us that these kids are eating tons of processed, excess in salts and fatty foods so obviously they would be the most obese vs the kids that avoid canned foods. It could be that bpa has nothing to do with it and is more the case that they are just eating more canned foods which is the leading factor in their obesity. Who the hell ran these studies? Don’t just accept everything you read on the internet as fact.
