bottled water thats been left in the heat in car

Bottled water in your car.....very dangerous, woman!!!!
This is how Sheryl Crow got breast cancer. She was on the Ellen show and
said this same exact thing. This has been identified as the most common
cause of the high levels in breast cancer, especially in Australia.

A friend whose mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. The doctor
told her: women should not drink bottled water that has been left in a car.

The doctor said that the heat and the plastic of the bottle have certain
chemicals that can lead to breast cancer.. So please be careful and do not
drink bottled water that has been left in a car, and, pass this on to all
the women in your life. This information is the kind we need to know and be
aware and just might save us!!!! The heat causes toxins from the plastic to
leak into the water and they have found these toxins in breast tissue. Use
a stainless steel canteen or a glass bottle when you can!!!

Let everyone that has a wife/girlfriend and daughter know please

That can't be very good for men either. The warning should go to any bottled water that's been under heat or sunlight for too long. The question is, how long?

You know that stuff gets hot during shipment, right?

Erm, what a load of tosh.

erm well if its tosh why do most bottled water containers say PLEASE DO NOT REUSE
of course plastic leaches into the liquid its all part of the general poisoning of the population to dgenerate our health so we do not reach our maximum potential, and for population control. but sometimes you just got to stop worrying about these things and raise your thoughts to higher thinking because if u obsess about these things this in itself can cause cancer

cancer is caused by a combination of events and we can overcome this by strengthening our minds and bodies and refusing to touch anything that we deam poisonous.

It isn't tosh at all, I was taught in school about the dangers of plastic bottles used for storing drinking liquid. Plastic is made from oil and chemicals and they secrete into the liguid which is stored in them, it's not so bad when the bottle hasn't been opened as it's an almost airtight container but as soon as the bottle is opened the chemicals start to react with the air. I was taught it in a chemistry lesson. So it aint tosh at all, must be a illuminati funded dis-info scientist who wrote those sites, as if i was taught that plastic bottles are dangerous ways of storing drinking liquid in school then obviously it may contribute to cancer.

The illuminati obviously forget what is taught in schools and that some of us do have a memory due to not over dosing on the poisons such as MSG and aspartame like the sheeple, who will see those sites and think, oh it must be a hoax.

Tight fitting bras are likely the biggest cause of breast cancer.

I thought you shouldn't reuse them due to bacteria building up in the mouth piece? Also, if you're refilling them, you're not buying new ones?

I agree wholeheartedly with the last bit of the statement :)

Recycled plastics that don't have a level 1 and 2 marked in the recycle arrows can leech toxic contaminants into the water or container if heated up. Recently many restaurants have started using level 5 containers meant for cold dishes. I haven't studied this angle much. I have seen restaurateurs ignorant of the reason those markings belong on the products and the purposes for use as such. So if you get a hot dish in a level 5 you may be eating toxic contaminants.

That would probably also go for microwaving food in plastic containers.

Petroleum-based plastic food containers aren't good news for men's health either:

An estrogen-like chemical commonly used to synthesize plastic food containers has been shown to encourage the growth of a specific category of prostate cancer cell, potentially affecting the treatment efficacy for a subset of prostate cancers.

According to a study published in the January 1 issue of Cancer Research, such prostate cancer cells proved to be vulnerable to exposure to the chemical BPA (bisphenol A), an industrial chemical and nonsteroidal environmental estrogen used in the manufacture of food cans, milk container linings, food storage containers and water supply pipes. About 2.5 billion pounds of the chemical are produced each year.

And now for a solution: vegetable-based plastic containers...

We have all been scared about BPA in plastic water bottles, and we know that petroleum-based plastic water bottles are bad for the environment; however, there are times when even the most eco-minded individual needs to buy bottled water. As a rare consumer of bottled water, I am glad that now I have a choice with Primo Purified Water. Primo uses corn-based, BPA-free, #7 plastic and advertises it as an "American Grown Bottle". According to the Green Guide, this is a harmless variety of plastic:

All plastic polymers created after 1987 are labeled with the same number, #7 Other. So while your Nalgene reusable bottle is made from polycarbonate and labeled a #7, your new corn-based, compostable plastic dinner plates and cups are also labeled #7. Several plastic types fall under the #7 label including polyethersulfone (the resin used in new bisphenol A-free plastic baby bottles) and polylactic acid (corn- and other starch-based resins). If you are concerned about hormonal effects from PC plastics, look for the letters "PC" which may be in place of (or alongside) the #7 code on the bottom of your containers.

Since #7 plastics are designed to be reused, unlike the typical #1 PET crude oil plastic water bottles, you can keep refilling your Primo bottle with your own tap water.

The catch about this is that they use corn, which is much better used for food, but if we can just get industrial hemp legalized...

yeah im sorry how it was worded i should of put for everyone -my mistake

[astral_girl]

and i have just relised that my boys take plastic bottles to school-as they must do nowadays so they can drink water through the day-sometimes ive took normal water bottles-other times they have a flask type thing-but again this is made of plastic:(

when i was younger it was more proper flasks that had the metal inside them but you dont see that much these days-anyone have any links about what they could be taking into school??:confused:

this water stands intrays in the school classroom too-not in fridges

has anybody thought that breast cancer is because women dont naturally produce a child as they would in nature, (after puberty, unless they get pregnant young)
And no woman I know breastfeeds for a number of years as we would do if we lived naturally?

i reckon theres truth in that beldazar:)

You know those sport water bottles that cyclists use to put in their frame bottle cages?

Anyone got any info on how toxic it might be to re-use them over a long period?

[jshlackm]

Plastics leech xenoestrogens which interfere with women's natural hormones (estrogen), having those estrogen-analogs is not good for men either. Heat causes a great increase in the outgasing of those chemicals from plastic, especially soft plastics. Polycarbonate bottles are better to drink water and beverages from.

Namaste,

You actually think using a fresh plastic bottle each time is better? You probably have a lot more to worry about if you get some gasoline on your hands while filling up. - that is if you want to be scared of everything.
