Looking for BPA FREE Drink Bottles? - click here! There has been much publicity around the globe lately about the safety of traditional plastic drink bottles and the issue of BPA. But what does it all mean and what are the risks in using conventional plastics for drink bottles?
BPA stands for bisphenol-A, which is a synthetic chemical used in the production of polycarbonate plastics throughout the world. Polycarbonate is used in the production of many different kinds of products, from DVD's to water bottles and conventional drink bottles. The problem with polycarbonate is that studies by reputable bodies have found that the BPA found in them leach out and into liquid or food contained within, especially when polycarbonate is heated.
Studies have also linked exposure to these chemicals - which rapidly leach out of plastic bottles when they are exposed to a hot liquid - to damage in developing brains and tissues as well as a heightened risk of cancer later in life (in particular breast and prostate cancers).
