hmmm... Just wanted to share the information to all my friends...

Polycarbonate bottles are popular now, as it is more resistant to heat, reusable, transparent, nice to carry as the weight is so light, special, and the designs on it looks nice that it attract people’s attention with various design that classic, funny, and meaningful. However, some of the substance used to make polycarbonate bottles might be harmful to our body. Some studies had stats that a harmful substance called Bisphenol A (BPA) leached from the polycarbonate bottles. BPA is the main substance to make polycarbonate bottles. It can be found in feeding bottles and other household items that made up of polycarbonate.

BPA can results risk to human health, such as cancer on human’s reproductive system. Some countries such as, Canada and Europe had restricted the level of BPA allowed to add into feeding equipments to avoid babies to contact with large amount of BPA. A study conducted by scientist found that a new bottle leached around 3.5ppb of BPA after washed gently with water, but, a very old and scratched bottle leached 28ppb of BPA! Another reports also found that BPA leak out from the bottles when it was boiling for about 30minutes. Some studies also showed that the migration of BPA to our foods is very low. Some scientist also says that polycarbonate bottles are safe to use. Some also says that BPA danger may be greater from tin cans than water bottles. Faint~In short, there is no clear conclusion about the safety of polycarbonate bottles. I think. Click here more information of BPA in canned foods.






Disease can be caused by BPA:






Especially for womens:





Some safer level of plastic for use:







However, we can do something to prevent BPA leaching from polycarbonate bottles; firstly, we should change our polycarbonate bottles that we’ve been using it for a period, we have to change our bottles when we see the surface inside the bottles is a bit of blur, secondly, we shouldn’t put boiling water inside the bottles. We can also choose BPA free water bottles, it is available in some countries already.

Are polycarbonate bottles safe to use? Judge yourself.
