Chemicals found 92% of 6 year olds

Newsweek: The Chemicals Within
" Many common househols products contain compounds that could be affecting our health. ... The Environmental Working Group found an average of 200 chemicals in the cord blood of 10 new- borns, including known carcinogens and neurotoxins." Bisphenol A is found in baby bottles, sippy cups, juice bottles and the lining of food and beverage containers including cans and takeout containers among other things. Bisphenol A can leach out of the plastic and into our bodies. " The CDC has found BPA ( Bisphenol A) in 92 percent of Americans 6 and older who were tested." What to do? Throw out your babies plastic bottles and sippy cups and replace them with glass or aluminium. Replace your plastic shower curtain with a cloth one. And don't buy canned tomatoes- the acid in tomatoes causes the BPA to leach out- instead buy tomatoes in vacuum sealed boxes.
