In the past few years, there has been lots of research done on the potential dangers of bisphenol-A, a plastic softener that is used in the production of polycarbonate plastic commonly used in baby bottles and sippy cups due to its durability. According to www.zrecs.com, although several scientists have warned manufacturers and consumers about these possible dangers, the FDA is still reluctant to examine the dangers of bisphenol-A.
