Default Plastic bottles may be toxic

msnbc.com Video Player

The above link is a clip on the Today Show regarding the release of toxins in water bottles that we use in our everyday lives. They suggest never using a bottle with a recycle number of 3, 6 or 7. Apparently some of the sippy cups and bottles are made out of that very same plastic! And the toxins have been detected in the umbilical cord and placenta. Check it out.

Even better here is a site that tells you what is the BPA-free baby stuff.

Thanks for posting that Laura, this was on that site also. Very handy wallet card!



*** Link for the PRINTABLE file below ***

Just download our free PDF file from Google Base, print it out, cut out the double-sided card, fold it down the middle, and voila! Now it's easier than ever to identify BPA-free products for your children.
