On December 13, French National Assembly passed almost unanimously voted in favor of a law banning the use of bisphenol A, one of the most frequent endocrine disruptors in food grade materials. Is the first European country to eradicate the chemical, which is used to make containers such as bottles or tuppers liners and cans, and which has been associated with diseases like diabetes, infertility, breast cancer or prostate cancer. Endocrine disruptors are chemicals present in many everyday products (plastics, creams, shampoos ...) on the effects on health has alerted the WHO report. The European Union removed Bisphenol A (abbreviated BPA) in baby bottles in 2011. Now Healthy Living Foundation has launched a campaign to demand that Spain urgently ban this compound in materials in contact with food and drink.
"Bisphenol A is the star of endocrine disruptors, the most studied. There is an impressive scientific basis, with more than 1,000 studies. Scientific data have made the French food safety agency, ANSeS, make the decision to ban . do not want Spain go to towing, but to be in the forefront and have already started contacts with political groups, "said Thursday at a press conference the director of the home without toxic campaign, Carlos de Prada. The ANSeS determined in a 2011 study it was necessary to replace this substance in food contact packaging "soon".
The United Nations Program for Environment (UNEP for its acronym in English) and the World Health Organization presented this week a report commissioned 16 experts to assess the scientific evidence related to the effects of endocrine disruptors. One of their main conclusions is that these chemicals are a "global threat" to Watch.
The cientítico Nicolas Olea, professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Granada, explained that bisphenol A reaches the blood through foods or beverages that have been in contact with packaging materials like plastic bottles or cans . It is used to create polycarbonate, a type of clear rigid plastic and epoxy resins used in coatings and coatings for cans, for example. "If it protects children up to three years to ban bisphenol A in baby bottles, why not done which is weaker, the fetus. Ban should be extended at least to women of childbearing age "said Olea.
"The authorities are obliged to safeguard the health of consumers from any possible threat that the compromise and, therefore, in the present case, must take urgent measures to to reduce the presence of Bisphenol A in the body of the Spanish population, "the campaign website. "With the greatest possible haste, to be drafted a law in Spain that will prevent any material, container or receptacle intended to come into contact with food and drink (and they themselves) may contain Bisphenol A," he adds. The application is accompanied by a report that reviews the scientific evidence on this and other chemicals in the spotlight of the health authorities.
