GUIDELINES: Safe Bottle and Formula Guide


So apparently I'm the only mom in the world (probably not which is why I'm posting this) who didn't know BPA isn't just leaking from plastics, but also http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.giffromhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifgif cans into food. All these years I've been thinking that making pasta sauce was so super beneficial to my health, even if I make it 99 percent of the time with canned tomatoes (sorry but most tomatohttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifes in America taste like water really) and now I have rethink the whole process.

So this study from the Environmental Working Group back in 2007 is the main one talking about how BPA (Read on BPA here) was leaking into ready-made liquid formula containers into the food. I only use powdered formula but I know that I have been tempted sometimes to buy a couple of these ready-made cans when out and about. Now I'll probably never even consider it!

Here are some safe baby feeding guidelines from the same group. The group is a non-profit company that deals pretty exclusively with nutritional, agricultural and food industry issues. They also have a sister lobbying organization that helps push their cause.
