The ubiquity of the endocrine-disrupting chemical bisphenol A led researchers to ask what it might be doing in publicly supplied, chlorinated drinking water. The answer: Chlorinated BPA has different, but no less profound effects on cell-signaling networks than unmodified BPA.
For years, scientists have been worried about bisphenol A. The chemical is known as an “endocrine disruptor,” a substance that interferes with the body’s hormone signaling system, and it’s found in everything from plastic drink bottles to the linings of food and drink cans to the thermal paper used for cash register receipts — not to mention the urine of 92.6 percent of Americans over the age of six. BPA has been associated with the development of chronic diseases such as diabetes, asthma and ovarian dysfunction. In 2012, the FDA banned BPA from use in the production of baby bottles and drinking cups.
BPA’s ubiquity in the environment led researchers to ask what it might be doing in publicly supplied drinking water, which is contaminated at its source by BPA-laden discarded plastic and later picks up more of the chemical when it passes through PVC plastic pipes. Most public water supplies are chlorinated to kill bacteria, and the BPA in the water also becomes chlorinated, acquiring one or more chlorine atoms from the water around it. The question was, how does this chlorinated BPA behave in the body?
The answer, generated from cell-culture experiments, was that it produced different but no less profound effects. “We found that when you modify the BPA it works just as dramatically but in different ways on the same systems,” said University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston professor Cheryl Watson, senior author of a paper on the study now online in Endocrine Disruptors.

So, we have life-shortening, deadly, cancerous, chemicals being ubiquitously fed to us in our foodstuffs……by food processors and the plastics industry,……for profit and convenience.
WOW!…..Think of the trillions of dollars this saves the governments of the world in old-age retirement benefits………And other untold trillions of dollars in profits for Big Pharma and the health care industries treating all the myriad diseases inflicted upon an unsuspecting public.
…………And, of course surreptitiously assists the U.N. Agenda 21 in achieving the “Sustainable” level of reduced world population the Elite Oligarchy is planning.
Isaiah 58
Just wait untill the “affordable health care act” kicks in…
