Plastic Containers/ Bottles is harmful to our brain.........................

TORONTO: Plastic containers may be deadly for our brain Canadian researchers have found that Bisphenol A (BPA), the chemical used in making plastic containers, might be responsible for impairing many brain functions such as learning and remembering.

They also fear that it could be a factor behind Alzheimer's, schizophrenia and depression. BPA is globally used in making plastic water bottles, baby food bottles, food containers and dental prostheses.

In their study, the researchers at the University of Guelph, near Toronto, found that BPA might be leaking into the solid or liquid foods kept in the plastic containers. When these foods and liquids are consumed, they said, the chemical might be getting into the human system, disrupting communication between brain neurons which is vital in understanding and remembering.

According to researcher Neil MacLusky, the slow doses of this chemical impair the formation of synapses in the areas of the human brain linked to learning. The researchers fed African green monkeys with foods containing low levels of BPA for a month. After that period, they found that the chemical had slowed down the synapses in the monkey brain.

MacLusky said the process was linked to the hormone estrogen. "Estrogen enhances the rate at which some types of synapses are formed and is vital in maintaining normal neuronal structure in regions of the brain," he said. When monkeys had BPA in their system, he said, it seriously impaired this process, affecting their ability to remember.

In another research, American researchers have found a fire retardant chemical used in electronics, toys and furniture at triple the levels found in their mothers. In a small pilot study of 20 families, the non-profit group, Environmental Working Group, tested blood samples from mothers and their children for the presence of PBDEs, a hormone-disrupting chemical. In 19 of the 20 families, concentrations of PBDEs were typically three times as high in children as in their mothers. ( Taken from Times of India, 6th September,2008)
