Childhood Obesity Caused By Specific Type Of Packaging.

Dear Reader,


Important news on BPA (bisphenol-A), one of those chemicals that's nearly impossible to avoid - it's in just about everything - plastics, the lining of aluminum cans, cash register receipts. We know that this compound can disrupt the endocrine system and that's been associated with effects on health. Recent research has tied exposure to BPA to an increased risk for asthma, heart and kidney disease, thyroid problems and even changes in the brain.

Now a new study finds that young girls who are exposed to high levels of this chemical risk becoming obese. BPA could be what's known as an environmental obesogen - a compound that disrupts the natural development/balance of lipid metabolism. This can, and does, lead to obesity. It makes experts wonder, could all the exposure to BPA be partially responsible for the obesity epidemic?

The study included over 1,300 children (grades 4-12) who were going to school in Shanghai. Urine samples were taken from the students to determine BPA exposure. They also examined the subjects for other risk factors involved in childhood obesity including what they ate, how active they were and a family history. The subject children were then divided into groups based on BPA exposure.

The team saw that girls from 9 to 12 years old, who had higher than average BPA urine levels were two times more apt to be either overweight or obese than those with lower than average levels. Girls with "extremely high" levels of BPA were five times more likely to be in the highest weight percentile group for children their age. There was no risk increase in girls over 12 or in boys at any age.

It may be that girls in the throws of puberty are more sensitive to the impacts of BPA on both energy balance and fat metabolism.

This study comes on the heels of research in September 2012 that uncovered that kids with the highest levels of BPA exposure, also measured through urine samples, were two times more likely to be obese compared to children with the lowest levels. What's more, it didn't matter how many calories they were eating.

Childhood Obesity Caused By Specific Type Of Packaging. Continued...



Since 1980, obesity rates have nearly doubled in the world according to figures from the World Health Organization. There are currently more than 1.4 billion adults, another 40 million children who are estimated to be overweight. Nearly two thirds of U.S. adults are overweight or obese, one third of kids and teens according to reports from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration claims that BPA is safe at the very low levels that are found in some foods, though the agency is conducting more studies to see if the chemical is safe as it's used in packaging. As recently as June 2013 consumers were reassured that the currently approved uses of BPA in food containers and packaging was indeed safe.

BPA has been formally banned from baby bottles and sippy cups since last summer, though many companies had already been removing the chemical from these products anyway. In March 2012 the U.S. FDA rejected a petition for a full ban on BPA, citing a lack of evidence to support such an action.

The findings of this latest research add fuel to the fire concerning the ban on BPA in food uses. Environmental chemicals can certainly contribute to the obesity epidemic and thus we should try to control exposure, especially of youngsters, whenever possible.



To your good health,
