Today we’re sharing crucial information about avoiding BPAs, a harmful chemical found in plastics and canned food. Armed with this knowledge, you can take simple steps to protect your health. Remember—your health is the greatest wealth!

When it comes to BPAs (bisphenol A), I really can’t say a good word about them. They’re bad for the earth and terrible for our bodies, so the less we ingest (knowingly or not) the better. When you feel as strongly about sustaining wellness as I do, the best way to deal with BPAs is to get them out of your life.

And how do I loathe BPAs? Let me count the ways. Biosphenol A is an industrial chemical, an endocrine disruptor, a suspected carcinogen, and proven synthetic hormone that mimics the effects of estrogen! BPAs have been linked to increased risks for heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, as well as liver and brain problems. BPAs are also credited with contributing to erectile dysfunction and the growth of breast cancer cells in adults plus developmental problems in children. Need I go on? Clearly, it’s time for all of us to kick it to the curb.” Get more here: Kick BPAs to the Curb « Positively Positive.
