Panel Says BPA Risk Underestimated
Toxicologists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) also published research about current levels of the chemical found in many food containers, plastic bottles and dental fillings in a study earlier this month.
According to the NIH findings, the chemical could have dangerous effects on the development of the brain and the prostate gland in fetuses and newborn babies.
Nevertheless, in a report as recently as last August, the agency continued to maintain that current levels of the chemical were safe, triggering an outcry from the scientific community and consumer protection groups.
