"Plasticizers—the most common of which are called phthalates—are used to make
plastic more flexible and more durable. They’re so widely used that today, they
show up inside almost all of us, right along with other chemicals found in
plastic, including bisphenols such as BPA. Both types of chemicals have been
linked to a long list of health concerns, even at very low levels. (Read our
full report on these chemicals,
The Plastic Chemicals Hiding in Your Food,
which includes the results of our tests of 85 food products.)
While most experts agree that big policy changes are needed to address the
health risks posed by phthalates and bisphenols, in the meantime, there are
some things you can do to help protect yourself and your family."
