Rashes Hypothyroidism

BPA in question

Lately, everywhere on the web, in magazines for children, on television talking about baby bottles dangerous to our babies. Canada is the first country to set foot in the flat since last October to ban the sale of baby bottles and other pollutants childcare articles intended for feeding toddlers. What

that BPA?

Initially, BPA has been studied as a synthetic estrogen, is a medication that can compensate for deficits in female hormone. It is now considered an endocrine disruptor, including potentially dangerous to the fetus and young children, as well as certain pesticides or phthalates. According to several studies, fetal exposure to BPA in mice disrupts neuronal development and that of the breast.

Why toxic?

Bisphenol A, or BPA, is a chemical that enters into the composition polycarbonate, a hard plastic and epoxy resins, often found in paints and adhesives. BPA is found especially in the rigid food containers and bottles in a large majority of plastic baby bottles, and in the lining of cans and cans. Is its ability to migrate out of plastic that worries scientists.

The bottles are mostly plastic and more particularly polycarbonate - the symbol of recovery 7 or PC on the bottom of the bibs, water bottles and other plastic dishes -. This frees up a toxic polycarbonate, the bisphenol A (BPA), when heating the bottle. The latter contaminates the milk and thus poisons the baby. Plus the bottle is old, scratched, damaged ... more toxic it is!

The consequences of bisphenol A (or BPA):

Bisphenol A is mistaken for a female sex hormone, estrogen, and disrupt the hormone system.

Bisphenol A may have various adverse effects such as mammary gland tumors, cancer, behavioral disorders, miscarriages, obesity, hyperactivity ... Nothing much to get excited!

What?

  • replace all your baby bottles, polycarbonate baby bottles by glass - it breaks! - Or poly (1), polypropylene (5) or polyethersulfone (PES) as the Green to Grow bottle below, or some Nuby (while silicone) or Dodies mam (but it would seem that they contain ptalates). Look at the composition!

  • not reusing bottles Seniors

  • not heat the milk in the bottle and even less in the microwave

  • biberonss do not put water bottles and sun

  • do not wash bottles and plastic items for food in the dishwasher with detergent and powerful

  • not heat food in plastic boxes

Well then? when you start?

green_to_grow

Green to Grow = NOT toxic! :)))))

without BPA or phthalates

To do no controversy, I will not mention brands which bottles are polycarbonate. If you have any doubts about the bottles you use, go to the website of the brand. All the famous brands have a section devoted to this subject and describes the composition of their bottles.

Here a very interesting study on BPA

Jib Jab Isnt Free Anymore

Joke of the day

I'm back in Ann Arbor! I would give more detailed news about my exams, return to France, 5 cm of snow at Paris and its consequences ...

But let me tell you very briefly a very funny moment in the American bureaucracy that has happened today. Since my return, I am in battle against the university that makes me pay since the beginning of my stay I have health insurance already paid in France. The state of Michigan requires universities to mandate health coverage to meet certain conditions extremely accurate. So I had to be completed by my mutual form, waiver , some sort of exemption. The problem is that as these formalities are not resolved, the university blocked me signing up for the second half.

After an interminable correspondence with each other to get what my form, I'll be back in the office of the person in charge with my precious paper received in the morning. Some checks to see if my plan matches the conditions of the university, no problem, in most cases it exceeds the demands of the school except one, motherhood! I look a little surprised, and said, somewhat embarrassed, there is enough little chance that I get pregnant. He replied that the university requires this because the law prohibits discrimination based on sex of the person. But what is there discrimination here? There is only one case in the world of a man who could birth, and yet he was born biologically female.

This anecdotal case they agreed to refund me though have refused to another exchange student meets all requirements except the maternity-illustrates just one of the scourges of American society (and to some extent French society) I face every day: the prosecution. Everything is likely lead to a trial and thus protects everyone and nobody is responsible.

Leaving the office, I walk through the building and past unisex toilets, another legal requirement. A few yards away, near the door, I see one of those yellow signs that sees North America and McDonald's in France that you warn that the soil can be wet and now you can beat you up You have been warned.
