BPA Exposure & Miscarriage

In recent years, the chemical BPA, or bisphenol A, has caused quite a stir.

In 2010 the FDA deemed it as being possibly hazardous to the health of young children and infants, and now a more recent study is linking BPA exposure to miscarriage.

In high doses BPA acts as a hormone disrupter, which explains why it could contribute to miscarriage in those who are already hormonally sensitive or genetically prone.

What does this mean for you, WomanCoder?In this week’s Hormonal Health Challenge, read through the following list and minimize your BPA exposure as much as possible. Whether or not you’re trying to conceive, your hormonal balance will benefit big-time from these small changes!Your BPA-free checklist:

• Don’t put hot foods or liquids in plastic containers! This goes for microwaving, too -- always use glass containers.
• Check to be sure your reusable water bottles and baby bottles are BPA-free. (Most will have it clearly labeled.)
• Reduce your use of canned foods, but if you must, make sure to store them in a relatively cool area.
• Support your liver in daily detoxification by increasing your intake of fiber, vegetables, and fresh water.
