If you don't feel like reading the article here are some short notes:

(Until state or federal laws outlaw BPA in consumer products, you can protect yourself by:

*

minimizing your consumption of canned food and canned beverages, as BPA may be used to line the cans; choose fresh or frozen food and bottled juices instead
*

buying only water bottles or baby bottles that explicitly say they are BPA-Free
*

using glass baby bottles and reusable water bottles made from stainless steel or aluminum
*

avoiding plastic food and beverage containers that are made with #7 plastic; you should see the number in a triangle on the bottom of the bottle.) -The Daily Green
