Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widely used industrial compounds in the world , and is extensively used in the manufacture of baby bottles, water bottles, feeding utensils, food contact materials, medical devices, ophthalmic lenses and hundreds of other daily necessities. Unfortunately, it is highly probable that BPA can migrate from the containers or packaging materials to food and beverages after heating.
Many studies have shown that exposure to excessive amounts of BPA may affect neurological development and immune system functioning, especially for babies and children. BPA may also disrupt the endocrine system, leading to fertility problems and precocious puberty, affect chest development and reproductive function, and even cause cancers.
After numerous incidents concerning BPA, many countries or regions have imposed stricter regulations on the usage of BPA or listed it as a prohibited item.
