Nearly two and a half years ago, Sarah Gilbert brought you a story noting that Bisphenol A, a toxic chemical, is found in baby bottles. Now, a new study highlights that danger once again. Environment California, using independent labs, tested a number of hard, clear plastic baby bottles and found that "every one of those five brands of baby bottle leached a toxic chemical called Bisphenol A into the liquids inside the bottle," according to the group's Lara Tabor.

The toxin was found in bottles from Gerber, Playtex, AVENT, Dr. Brown's and Evenflo and was discharged more whenever a bottle was heated or washed with harsh detergent. "Bisphenol A has been linked to cancer, obesity, diabetes and a lot of other serious problems," Tabor said. Naturally, the bottle manufacturers say their bottles are made with FDA approved plastics and are safe for food contact. Bisphenol A can also be found in other products, including eye glasses, reusable water bottles and microwaveable food containers, but Environment California says that products for babies should be the regulated more closely than other products.
