'We now have several hundred studies-including more than 50 in humans-showing health effects from BPA at exposure levels we experience in everyday life, indicating the need for strong safety guidelines to protect public health,вЂќ said Laura Vandenberg, Ph.D., assistant professor of environmental science at University of Massachusetts Amherst School of Public Health and Health Sciences, who was the lead author of a recent report analyzing more than 450 studies on the effects of low-level BPA exposure. But there was no significant increase in the group that wore gloves.

In the first group, BPA levels taken four hours after handling receipts were three times higher than they were at baseline eight hours later, BPA levels were five times higher. About a week later, half of the volunteers returned to perform the experiment again, but this time they wore nitrile gloves (the type commonly used in doctorвЂ™s offices and hospitals). In the study, published in Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers measured the amount of BPA in the urine of 24 volunteers before and after they spent two hours handling thermal paper receipts. Research has linked BPA to an increased risk of breast and prostate cancers, cardiovascular disease, and reproductive and brain development abnormalities. вЂњThere's more BPA in a single thermal paper receipt than the total amount that would leach out from a polycarbonate water bottle used for many years,' said John Warner, Ph.D., president of the Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry. But the form of BPA used in food containers is chemically bound, while the type used in thermal paper easily rubs off. And a new study shows for the first time that handling the paper leads to increased levels of the chemical in the body.ДЇood is the top source of BPA exposure simply because so much of what we eat and drink comes packaged in BPA-containing plastic containers or cans (BPA is in the linings). But the thermal paper used for cash register and other receipts is another common source of BPA. Cannot be combined with any other coupon code.Concerns about the safety of Bisphenol A (BPA) have prompted a federal ban on the chemical in baby bottles and sippy cups, and some manufacturers have now removed it from water bottles and food containers. 15% off discount applies only to orders with a subtotal, before shipping and taxes, of $100.00 USD or more on.
