Our Environmental Commitment
This month, we’re zeroing in on the environmental factors that can impact your well-being. We first focus on Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor linked to a myriad of health issues. Alarmingly, BPA is present in an estimated 93% of people, with infants and children at the highest risk.
BPA: Sources and Solutions
Where It’s Found: Commonly present in canned foods and plastic containers, especially when heated.
Alternative Pitfalls: Replacements like Bisphenol S (BPS) may not be safer options.
Reducing BPA Exposure:
- Minimize use of plastics for food storage.
- Discard damaged plastic containers.
- Avoid plastics coded 3 and 7.
- Opt for glass or stainless steel for food storage.
- Drink filtered water from non-plastic containers.
Join us in taking steps towards a healthier lifestyle and a safer planet.
