“In a study of 75 volunteers, half were given canned vegetarian soup to eat, and the other half were given fresh vegetarian soup made without any canned ingredients. At the end of five days, those who ate canned soup had 12 times more BPA in their urine than the subjects who ate fresh soup. Then the groups were reversed (this is called crossover trial), and again, the canned soup consumers had much more BPA in their urine” Carwile JL, Ye X, Zhou X, Calafat AM, Michels KB, 2011
“BPA is a principal component of both polycarbonate and epoxy resins and is widely used for plastic products such as water bottles, baby bottles, food containers, and dental sealants. It can easily migrate into the human body and produce adverse health effects including increased risks of diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, and liver-enzyme abnormalities.” Usama Alshanaa, Ibrahim Lubbada, Nilgün G.
