你的奶瓶安全吗？
背景： 最近一种叫Bisphenol A （BPA）的物质引起更多公众的关注，因为Health Canada准备认定BPA为危险成分。虽然BPA已经使用了50年但最近的越来越多的研究显示，BPA会导致癌细胞的增长。 而妈妈们似乎更在乎BPA,因为BPA是很多的坚硬透明婴儿奶瓶的成分之一！下面是测试的几个大牌子的奶瓶， Gerber, Avent and Playtex。 Gerber, Avent在室温下的BPA的尚可，但加热后明显增加。而Playtex无论在室温还是加热，BPA都高。 Environmental Defence tested brand names Gerber, Avent and Playtex polycarbonate baby bottles, checking three from each manufacturer. The highest levels of the chemical were found after bottles were heated, which the group said was done to try to simulate the effects on the plastic of repeated high-temperature dish washing. It found all of them released BPA when heated to 80 degrees, although all three of the Gerber bottles and one of the Avent bottles didn't have detectible levels in fluids stored at room temperature. All the Playtex products leaked BPA, regardless of whether they were heated. Energizer Holdings Inc., the maker of Playtex bottles, referred questions to a website statement that said "multiple regulatory agencies ... advise us and consumers that the use of polycarbonate plastic bottles is safe and should not cause concern for parents." However, the statement said consumers who don't want to use polycarbonate should consider a line of products it makes that are BPA free. 加州的检测结果更显示几乎所有的名牌的塑料奶瓶都泄漏BPA： The Environment California Research and Policy Center found that the plastic material used in the bottle breaks down through use and releases bisphenol A into liquids and foods. Five brands of bottles were tested: Avent, Dr. Brown's, Evenflo, Gerber and Playtex. All five leached bisphenol A at levels "found to cause harm in numerous laboratory animal studies," said Environment California spokeswoman Rachel Gibson. |

目前几个大的奶瓶生产商正在加紧生产玻璃奶瓶，估计不久会有更多安全，易用的玻璃奶瓶问世。如果想现在替换你的塑料奶瓶，可以试试Born Free Glass+Avent Nipple的组合。 Born free glass bottle（9oz） 在Toy'r us有卖，16.99 CAD。网上加拿大的Mom Knows Best价格不错13.99。 US便宜的很： VitaPal.com: 7.68 US for Born free glass bottle（9oz） http://www.vitapal.com/v-born-free-b...ebase_campaign |
