Corelation. Is. Not. Causation.

BPA can cause more than that.

The National Toxicology Program of the National Institutes of Health concluded in April that there is "some concern" that BPA may cause problems in fetuses, babies and children, including breast or prostate cancer, early onset of female puberty, attention deficit disorder and other problems of the reproductive and neurological systems.

The FDA declared that BPA is safe based on two industry funded studies.

Chemicals in Plastic Shown to Cause Reproductive and Neurological Disorders

A University of Cincinnati (UC) research team, headed by Scott Belcher, PhD, reports in two articles in the December 2005 edition of the journal Endocrinology that BPA shows negative effects in brain tissue "at surprisingly low doses."

Need I go on?

Keep using BPA products. And people wonder why girls are hitting puberty so much earlier now.

Re:BPA can cause more than that.

That is because children have much better nutrition than there used to be. As a result, they are able to reach puberty sooner because of better health.

You're kidding right? I guess all healthy girls should be hitting puberty at 3.

Or this study showing that more girls from age 6 to age 9 are hitting puberty instead of from 10 - 11.

I really pray you were joking!
