Common Baby Bottle Ingredient Safe, says the FDA

As we have previously discussed, there has been a furor over bisphenol A or BPA, a common ingredient in the plastic used to make baby bottles.


Now scientists from the FDA have issued a new report declaring that the chemical is safe
, after revisiting the issue because the National Toxicology Program said that there was "some concern" about its effects on infants.

The reason why the FDA now considers it safe is because the amount of BPA needed to be dangerous is thousands of times greater than the amount actually contained in any baby bottle.
