The 3 Steps to Protect Yourself From Phthalates And Bisphenol
Dear Reader,
Some chemicals are good... others, not so much. We've seen bisphenol A, also known as BPA, be removed from many things, water bottles, baby products and food containers, in recent years. Phthalates, another dangerous chemical, are no longer part of personal care items like shampoo or lotion. Both substances have been identified as synthetic endocrine disrupters. Earlier work has linked prenatal exposure to phthalates to problems with the male reproductive system. Fetal exposures to BPA have been associated to hyperactivity, depression and anxiety in girls.
Recognizing the danger and taking steps to eliminate it may not be enough. According to recent research appearing in the Nature Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, we may all be exposed to these two harmful chemicals from what we eat... even if foods are organically grown, prepared, stored or cooked in non plastic containers. Those most at risk are children.
To conduct the work the team of researchers compared the exposure to chemicals of ten families, half who got written instructions on how to reduce both phthalate and BPA exposure developed by the national Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Units. For five days the other subject families were supplied with a diet of local, fresh, organic catered food that wasn't prepared, cooked or stored in containers made from plastics.
When the team tested the urinary concentrations for the metabolites of the two chemicals they found something quite remarkable. While they had expected the levels of metabolites to go down in those getting the catered foods, the opposite happened. The concentration for phthalates was 100 fold higher than the levels seen in the general population (from figures from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, NHANES). The concentrations were also higher for children than adults.
When the researchers tested the phthalate concentration in the organic foods they found concentrations well above acceptable limits. Dairy and spices both had more than their share of worrisome chemicals, substances you'd not expect to find.
It appears that the things experts currently suggest may not be enough to bring down exposures to potentially dangerous chemicals according to Dr. Sheela Sathyanarayana who is the study lead author as well as an environmental health pediatrician at the University of Washington School of Public Health and Seattle Children's Research Institute. Even when we try, it's hard to control exposure to these troubling chemicals as we have little control over what's in our food, even, it seems, if we buy organic and cook smart.
Using the study results, the team estimates that the average 3 to 6 year old child was exposed to 183 milligrams per kilogram of body weight each and every day. In case you're wondering, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommended limit is 20 mg/kg per day. To limit your exposure, or that of your children, here are some steps to take that are a start.

The 3 Steps to Protect Yourself From Phthalates And Bisphenol Continued...
1. Eat less processed foods; even though this study used organics, we know food processing involves these chemicals, or ones like them as yet unchecked, being part of the mix.
2. Airflow is important because indoor air tends to have higher loads of dangerous chemicals (from products and construction materials) than does the fresher air outside.
3. Be an informed shopper as many products are now free of the dangerous chemicals, but not all. You should still wash everything you buy, under warm water with soap, before your family (especially children) uses it. Also if you don't see the chemical name, but you see "fragrance" steer clear, as this may contain some of these substances.
To your good health,
