New study released on BPA in canned goods

»  Comments | Post a Comment

NEW YORK - A new study finds many Americans are getting unhealthy levels of the chemical BPA from common canned foods.

BPA is known to be in certain plastics but it is also used as a protective lining in cans.

The chemical has been linked to obesity and cancer in lab animals and some lawmakers are proposing legislation to restrict it.

The chemical industry insists B-P-A does not pose a risk to human health.
