The Harvard School of Public Health found that BPA (Bisphenol-a) leaches into your food and gets absorbed by the body. These can be found in most plastics and cans. In fact drinking from a poly carbonate water bottle for just one week can be harmful. Most plastic water bottles contain BPA. A study they performed showed that in one week of drinking from plastic containers, spiked body BPA by 69%.
BPA is an endocrine-disrupter. High levels of BPA in the body are associated with increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, neurological problems, and even cancer. There have been recent laws to keep BPA out of baby bottles.
Drinking fresh filtered water and eating fresh vegetables can go a long way in keeping you healthy. Anything stored in cans or plastics may be causing toxic chemicals to be absorbed into your body.
