And yet the effects of BPA have actually been studied, and it should not pose such a wide health hazard. But, due to the public outcry over potential dangers, the industry has been moving on to other bisphenol compounds that are less well understood. I think there could be a whole host of synthetics that contribute to the problem.
- chaostheory 7y agoYeah, BPS is the popular alternative to BPA, which has its own set of problems.
- smolder 7y agoThe solution probably wasn't to just sidestep to other bisphenol compounds. I'd say it was to stop selling products that depend on them, and let the world adapt. I'd also be curious to know, have the effects of BPA been sufficiently studied? Have results been replicated? Do the studies at least sometimes have a funding source not interested in a certain outcome?
