Not sure if you have heard yet or not, but BPA has been proven to be safe! Imagine that. Well the truth is the study that proved this well known hormone-disruptor is ‘safe’ had many omissions and some very questionable testing methods. So in the end we have a study that produced some very questionable results, using very questionable methods, nothing new here. But the said truth is, this was a (US) government funded study done jointly by the Department of Energy, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Center for Toxicological Research, which gives the study more clout in the eye’s of many. What’s even worse is the fact that the US government, who should be working to protect it’s citizens, is sponsoring clearly biased science, casting doubt on a very real danger to human health. You can read more on the study and how it was flawed from the start here:
