Bisphenol A or BPA is a compound that is found in many plastic products around the world like bottle. It has been in use since 1891, and known to be toxic and dangerous since 1930. Regulatory authorities all over the globe, however, had pushed the issue under the carpet, citing the absence of solid evidence of the material’s toxicity.
What does the research report say about it?
In the last one year, a spate of studies has pointed to the serious toxicity of BPA. Children born to women exposed to BPA during pregnancy may show serious reproductive and neurological defects in adulthood. Even adults who are exposed periodically may develop heart disease, diabetes and liver ailments. Earlier studies in the US had shown that 93% of population is exposed to BPA. So, plastic bottle is danger for living being.
Exposure of BPA in our life.
BPA is a common constituent of many feeding bottles. It could be present in plastic water pitchers, or any clear and stiff plastic. It is widely used to stiffen a type of plastic called polycarbonates. This is often present in food cans, beverage bottles, dental filling and many other items. So common is BPA now in our world that it is one of most widely manufactured chemicals in the world. But so far, only a handful of people thought exposure to this chemical were dangerous, as evidence mounts, the minority voice is becoming louder. These voices are even danger then why not plastic bottle will be.
The experiment that proved that plastic is dangerous for us.
The sherbrooke university study came up with an interesting, as well as troubling, finding. Placental cells exposed to BPA did not follow the normal patterns of toxicity that have been known so far. In other words, it was seen that the lower the doses of BPA, the more toxic is the effect. The university scientists isolated placenta cells and exposed them to low doses of BPA, at levels found in the blood of pregnant women. The compound damaged cell membranes and also produced a protein associated with cell death. This suggests that BPA in the blood can affect foetal development, lead to premature birth or even loss of pregnancy. This provides further evidence that BPA can affect reproductive health in low doses. It is necessary to take action against these plastic bottles which is danger. I am not using plastic bottle. And try to avoid using any plastic items. I am helping a little bit you can also help.
