Remember our autism discussion re: research showing BPAs?

Post by carolm »

For those of you that recall the research I mentioned regarding the study that showed that when BPAs were introduced in the mother rat's milk, then passed on to the babies, the babies lost skills. Here is an article stating the FDA is now prohibiting BPAs from the plastics that make baby bottles. Whether BPAs contribute to autism or not (and I am suspicious of them) we know they aren't good for us. This is an encouraging move by the FDA.
