Re: warm weather (bisphenol) reminder
Canned Food May Expose People to BPA

Quote:
A study conducted by a coalition of consumer and food safety groups found detectable levels of BPA in 46 of 50 grocery store cans tested. The results suggest BPA routinely leaches from can linings into food.
BPA has been associated with a variety of health problems in laboratory animals, including cancers, early puberty, and developmental problems.
The highest BPA level detected was 1,140 parts per billion, found in a can of Del Monte French Style Green Beans obtained from the pantry of a study participant in Wisconsin.
