NO MORE Harmful Plastic!

BPA is a chemical found in many plastics such as water bottles, infant chew toys, and in almost every food and beverage utencil you could think of. Not only is this chemical unsafe, but it is very harmful to our human bodies. With our food being exposed to BPA through food containers and infants chewing on plastic toys, we are actually consuming this harmful chemical on a daily basis.

This chemical causes many serious health issues such as cancer, and with your signature, we can help stop the production of the chemical BPA.

Do you ever wonder why it smells like burned plastic when heating milk in a baby bottle? Do you ever think, why does my bottled water taste like plastic? BPA is the problem. BPA is a chemical that is very harmful and toxic. BPA should not be used in any products!


According to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, “Bisphenol A, otherwise known as BPA, is a chemical produced in large quantities primarily used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins”. So basically, BPA is a chemical found in any kind of plastic such as toys, water bottles, home products, and in almost any food and beverage utensil like cups, plates, forks, spoons, you name it.


You may ask yourself, so if this chemical is harmful, then why do companies use it in their products? Well, that is the exact question I ask myself. How can companies use a chemical so harmful to us human beings, and especially, how can they use the chemical BPA in food containers? Harmful chemicals in food and liquid containers mean that there is contact and exposure of this chemical into our foods and drinks. This is insane! This means that we are all actually consuming the harmful chemical BPA!


Some plastic-making companies have told the media that this chemical is very, very safe. This is a lie! Here is a list retrieved from an article posted on December 8, 2013, of what BPA can cause to our human bodies:


• Hormone level change


• Non-normal behavior


• Heart diseases


• Brain diseases


• Cancer


• Obesity


• Diabetes


• ADHD


BPA is a very dangerous chemical exposed to almost all human beings every single day. Infants are usually the ones that are most exposed to this awful substance. Heating a baby bottle with milk and giving it to the baby is very bad because, since the plastic was heated, there is even more BPA in the container, and the infant is drinking all of that. Also, most infant chew toys are made with BPA, so chewing the toys is also bringing exposure to this chemical.


Exposing this chemical to adults is bad, but exposing this chemical to infants and children is even worse. “Millions of infants are exposed to dangerous chemicals hiding in plain sight,” states Senator Dianne Feinstein in the Huffington Post. Infants and children have very sensitive, delicate bodies. BPA can completely affect the normal growth of a child or infant. BPA may be one of the reasons why more and more people are developing diabetes and other diseases at such early ages.


Bisphenol A (BPA) is a very harmful chemical found in mostly all types of plastics you can think of: water bottles, plates, kitchen utensils, cups, restaurant food containers, and in even children/infant toys! BPA causes many serious diseases including heart diseases and diabetes. “A poison kills you. A chemical like BPA reprograms your cells and ends up causing a disease in your grandchild that kills him,” states biology professor Fredrick vom Saal. BPA should not be allowed anywhere! This chemical is very harmful for our bodies and the environment itself. Having BPA in all our plastic products must stop!
