WARN ALL FEMALES
Bottled water in your car.....very dangerous, woman!!!! This is how Sheryl
Crow got breast cancer. She was on the Ellen show and said this same exact
thing. This has been identified as the most common cause of the high levels in
breast cancer, especially in Australia
A friend whose mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. The Doctor
told her: women should not drink bottled water that has been left in a car.
The doctor said that the heat and the plastic of the bottle have certain
chemicals that can lead to breast cancer. So please be careful and do not drink
bottled water that has been left in a car, and, pass this onto all the women in
your life. This information is t he kind we need to know and be aware and just
might save us!!!! T he heat causes toxins from the plastic to leak into the
water and they have found these toxins in breast tissue. Use a stainless steel
Canteen or a glass bottle when you can!!!
LET EVERYONE WHO HAS A WIFE / GIRLFRIEND / DAUGHTER KNOW, PLEASE!
Most on-the-go water bottles are made of polycarbonate (recycle #7).
Bisphenol A, or BPA, is used to manufacture polycarbonate and can leach out of the container and into the water (or other liquid). Heat increases the rate of leaching, as can cleaning with harsh detergents or using it to carry acidic drinks (i.e., Coke, lemonade, etc). Note: Washing bottles in a dishwasher exposes them to both harsh detergents and heat simultaneously.
BPA mimics estrogen and disrupts the body's normal estrogen production. Scientists have been finding that endocrine disrupters like BPA can impair the reproductive organs of rats and mice, reduce sperm counts in rats, and bring about changes in tissue that resemble early-stage breast cancer, among other effects.
Most at risk are people with developing endocrine systems: pregnant women and newborns, followed by young children, and women who might get pregnant.
On the up-side, polypropylene (#5 PP), high-desity polyethylene (#2 HDPE), and low-density polyethylene (#4 LDPE) are not known to leach any chemicals into water and are considered safe.
