Are you being poisoned by BPA?

Dude, your wife is pregnant, even if her fears were NOT fact based I'd say support her. Pregnancy does a number on your mind, and you can't control it. Think of it this way, she's gone into "hyper protective" mode. With her bare hands she'd rip the throat out of someone who threatened that lump inside her. She's trying to make a safe, secure nest, it's not conscious, it's programmed into our DNA.

But yea, google Xenohormones, learn something new. Petroleum by-products are not good for our bodies. Ever wonder why so many dudes are on HRT at such young ages or the age of puberty is going down? (both facts, just look it up)

Oh I agree 100%. I will do a lot of looking into this but what you're saying makes complete sense, especially having already researched a little on the subject.

BPA is in Polycarb, and just about every plastic component you own or touch has PC or a PC-ABS blend in it. I believe PVC does to, as well as polystyrene. Pick up any Injection molded piece of plastic you have in the house and find the plastics code. It will be a triangle with a number in the middle. If that number is 3, then there's BPA in it. If it's a 7, then it most likely contains BPA's.

I heard you could die from getting out of bed and getting hit by a bus or something. So I been just staying in bed all week. It seems to work since Im still alive.

Here's the "EXTREMELY ABBREVIATED VERSION" of what I believe:
1. Modern humans have existed, give or take, about 125,000 years after millenia of evolution.

2. We've introduced more daily chemical exposure in the past 250 years than all our ancestors combined were exposed to in their lifetimes.

3. We've invented new chemical combinations that didn't exist.

4. Environmental adaptation is a slow evolutionary process.

5. While our bodies are designed to eliminate toxins, they did not evolve to eliminate either the toxin volume or the types of toxins that have become prevalent since the industrial age.

Take from that what you will.

We're all doomed unless space aliens intervene?

I looked at most of the plastic in my house and found nothing with a 3 or 7 on it. So this probably isn't worth mentioning to my wife. Or am i missing something?

Yes, and No. Depends on how much you care. Plastic resins are only split into 7 categories, and #7 is an "other" category. You'll have blends of just about every resin in your home.


I work with resin's all day, so I should drop before all of you.

I haven't had a chance to read any of the links yet. Basically all plastics are potentially dangerous to my kid and my wife should limit her exposure?
