A recent government report on the potential effects of a commonly used plastic additive (bisphenol A or BPA) has us completely freaked out. We're trying not to put on our tinfoil hats and go nuts. Let's just calmly and methodically remove every single piece of #7 plastic from our homes. Because this BPA stuff is scary. Acts like estrogen in the body? Yikes. Causes obesity in mice. Ouch. Pay attention, parents, because this is the closest we ever get to actual parenting advice.Here are the DadLabs tips for helping your family avoid BPA:* Avoid food and beverage marked with the recyclable #7 and shop for BPA free products.* Avoid using plastic cutlery and plates.* Do not use plastic plates and cups in the microwave.* Throw away any worn plastic plates and cups.* Hand wash your plastic plates and cups instead of putting them in the dishwasher.* Look for stainless steel, porcelain and glass baby food and drink containers.

Good topic here, today's recycled plastics seem to be more harmful than yesturdays. My old Tupperware canisters give me no problems, yet the plastic storage drawers, plastic bags and plastic trashbins we buy nowadays seem to offgas quite a bit. You may not notice a smell, but esp. for white containers, a black coating appears, it looks like soot. I don't burn regular candles in my home, only beeswax ones. My point is, I'm working on replacing the recent plastics in my home, starting (2Bcon't)

I had been searching and studying about these bad plastics and went through my pots,pans,and bowls and took everything out that was plastic or had scratches in the pots and pans. I went to store this week and bought things that were ceramic,glass or stainless steel. Also bought some expensive pots and pans that last a lot longer than regular cheap pots and pans. My daughter had gotten hypertyrodism about 2 years ago and want to see if it gets better because of the changes I am making.

Seriously bad stuff. It does look like word is finally getting out, though.

There is also two more numbers to watchout for #1 and #3 these also contain BPA but #7 leaks the most. There are also studies that sy that this will make children go into puberty sooner and make them more succeptible to haveing brest cancer or prostate cancer from the carcenigens in BPA.

Yeah, parents don't care what there kids eat when there small so thats what makes them obese in the future. Or sometimes you pass the obese gene to your kids.
