Scientists from all around the world seem to be gaining a consensus on the view that exposure to Bisphenol-A (BPA) – a chemical often found in plastic bottles and containers – could be damaging to the health of babies and pregnant women. In an open letter to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), a group of 60 scientists from 15 countries said they feared exposure to this chemical posed a number of health risks and called for action in reducing the exposure to BPA in everyday products.
