re: BPA found in soup cans, juice bottles, and much more

i cook everything also, but its hard especially when you son can't have milk,egg,soy or peanuts or tree nuts bec ause of allergy, you just have to weight the odds and decide what you wanna be picky about

Quoting tantric☮lemons:“    i cook everything homemade it is worth it to me... to know what is in the products my family eat”

we got rid of sugar and white flour. i feel SO much better!! after cheating 2 days and eating both things, i feel soooo sluggish!!

Quoting Connor's mom♥[GDS]:“ my mom and aunt have cancer and i watched my father in law die from it... yes its horrible”

same here, its why my daughter doesnt have a grandmother
now maybe that didnt make you more protective of what you put in your body
but it sure did me

and the fact that companies KNOW that its in their products and continue to sell them to people, because its cheaper not to change

that just offends my humanity

i believe to a certain degree ignorance is bliss.. we were all just fine till we found out about it and now everyone freaks out. just like swing flu omg,. everyone freaking out over it. i have 3 friends who have had swine fl;ue and are just fine., you just have to make sure you get treated. how much research have you done on BPA? how much do you nkow about it?.. if its your personal decisicion to not use it thats fine but i figure im feeding connor the same stuff i ate growing up and im 24 and still kicking. most of my family's health issues are iether from smokers or genetic issues that we woul of gotten regardless. i try not to sweat the small stuff... and almost all of it is small stuff to me

i could not get rid of sugar. i bake too much but i do use non bleached flour and unbleached sugar.

bpa can mimic hormones, I believe (I personally haven't done a ton of research on this particular thing) which can actually trigger some genetic conditions to appear when they may have lain dormant otherwise.

we use natural sugar replacements.

weve known about thes tuff in my family for ages.. like there is a protein diffecency called alpha 1 which means my cousin has to get protein iv's every week.

my husband is allergic to splenda so we just use sugar in the raw

Quoting Mr. Pink:“ As a matter of fact.. yes. 3 people on my side of the family and one just very recently on SO's side. I can walk outside and get hit by a car any day, but that doesn't stop me.”

but it doesnt hurt
look both ways before you cross the street
cross at a cross walk and wait for the signal

it never hurts anyone to exercise caution

its amazing the difference you can feel in your body

i am not worried at all about swine flu

and i have done a great deal of research on bpa, carcinogens, and other things i try to keep away from my family

that is bad for dogs...i know a lot of things that aren't bad for us are not good for dogs, but it worried me. I haven't researched it enough...
