From the details revealed about the “study” it is easy see that it is not really a “study”. It is lacking so much methodology that it is laughable.

This is no more than a paper postulating that BPA and obesity should be studied.

Reminds me of the fish oil “study” that supposedly shows aggressive prostate cancer resulting from fish oil consumption. I did some further investigation on that one and it is absolutely worthless on a number of levels.

There are a whole lot of things necessary to constitute a good scientific study, this has none of them.

Please see 9 above and click on the links provided. There are hundreds of studies on BPA, hormones, exposure, toxicity, obesity, etc.

This is just one correlative study that should not be over-interpreted, but the totality of evidence deserves respect. Have a look for yourself.

I’m convinced enough that my family avoids wherever it might be found.

You wouldn’t believe how darned inconvenient that is too.

There are serious weight problems in my family and my husband and I are both overweight.

My kids have avoided the stuff for the past 4 years and, strangely enough, for a ‘genetic’ affliction they’re not overweight. Any of them.
