BPA, or Bisphenol A, is used in various everyday products such as water bottles, sports equipment, food packaging, and even the lining of canned goods. Unfortunately, it has been linked to many negative health effects, including endocrine disruption and cancer. On top of that, this chemical can also hurt the environment. BPA entering the environment may not immediately cause damage or disrupt ecological balance. Instead, it accumulates in the bodies of living things over time. As animals and aquatic life absorb BPA through their food sources, it can eventually reach very high concentrations in their tissues, leading to various issues, such as reproductive problems or an increased risk of certain diseases.
