  • Warning, Do Not Eat or Drink from Warm Plastic.
    Imagine you are busy with eating a better diet and trying your best to optimize your health, when all the while an invisible slow poison is disrupting your hormones and increasing your chances of cancer and disease.
    This could be happening right now to you, or to a loved one. Plastic containers are filled with xenoestrogens (not just BPA) that can mimic estrogen in your body (or your babies body) and lead to worrisome outcomes.
    Please take charge of this issue in your home, and share this with family and friends so they know to deal with it as well. Plastics serve many useful purposes in our lives, but they are less than safe when used to hold food or drink...

      @@MySupereasylife333 You can also use stainless steel thermos or if you want to use a cup, there are ceramic cups albeit I would stop using it once they start to show tiny-tiny cracks or scratches because that will leach out the lead that's often in the glaze (lead leaches especially well into acids like coffee or juice). That's not a problem if you manage to find a lead-free ceramic coup, of course. I don't know about the lids, they might still leach bpa, bps, phthalates but it's probably less than having the whole cup leaching (the lid won't be in constant contact with the liquid if the cup/thermos is an up straight position and the surface area will be much smaller too).

    I wonder if you know this ;) I am a medical lab technologist and work in a toxicology lab. When we run urine drug screens on GCMS, besides finding all the illegal drugs and medications, in around 25-50% of the urine samples we find PHTHALATES!! Isn't that crazy (and proof) that you are ingesting plastic. And if it's in your urine that means it went through your blood, liver, heart, brain, and kidneys before it got to your urine.
    There are likely other plastic molecules that we aren't able to extract with our method but because of that I keep my food away from plastic always.
    Not food related but we also find DEET in urine so you might want to spray that on your clothes instead of your skin.

    Hey Dr. Berry! Love your videos! Very interesting and educational! I've been a veterinary technician for over 30 years and became very suspicious of using plastic years ago when it was linked to cats with "chin acne" ! It sounds crazy but I've known more than a few cats, including my parents cat who suffered for years with it, that have been cured just by eliminating plastic bowls for feeding and water. Made me wonder, if it does that to a cat who is only using it a few times a day, what is it doing to us humans who use it with virtually everything! It's easy and inexpensive to just use glass, ceramic or stainless for ourselves and our pets. Thank you for your time and being a doctor who actually cares!

    Q: What about canning lids (Ball, Kerr) for glass canning jars? There is some plastic in the lining of those lids, and they get heated once. Food isn't in contact with the lids while it's stored -- but I'm still curious about leaching during the home canning process. I'm always looking for a better (non-plastic) alternative, but this is the best I've got at the moment.

    Thanks for your video, I was always suspicious about water bottles left in the car - the water tasted different after a hot day. Also I’ve noticed my lymph nodes under my jaw have been swell on hot days whilst driving, since I’ve installed rubber mats in my car - so it’s highly likely there’s toxins they’re giving off in the air. I wonder if you could do a video on green tea (EGCG & Catechins in particular) - from the people I know it seems to have some odd effects - improved posture, loss of interest in eating, increased hair growth/stopping hair loss.

    This means don’t eat delivered/takeout foods from the restaurants as they are usually placed in plastic or styrofoam containers. The exception is fast foods, which use paper packaging, but their foods are very unhealthy to begin with.

      They're safe as long as the plastic not in contact with the food. I have little glass custard dishes with plastic lids. I keep butter in one covered with cling wrap that doesn't touch the food.

      Doesn't matter everthing we ingest came into contact with plastic at one point wether it be food processed through a factory the packaging it comes in, the water from your tap flows through rusty old pipes with lead and then flows through pvc in your house. What about reverse osmosis filter? The filter canisters are plastic the faucet aswell the membrane inside the storage tank also. Here's my advice avoid what you can try to eat healthy and enjoy life don't sweat the small things.

    Hello, important to know!
    We don't eat out of plastics for 30 years. When I'm bying dairy or nuts in plastic, I put it in a new glass container at home. Especially fat absorbes the chemicals. We are so sensitive to the smell, that we can taste it, and it get worse when the package is open!
    In Germany they have tested a family before and after:
    They removed all the plastics from their home (what is possible) and from the foods.
    They prooved that the chemicals are measurable in the blood and that reducing the use of plastics can reduce the pollution of the blood significant.

I have a water cooler with 5 gal. water bottles, the cooler is plastic as well. My drip coffee maker uses a plastic filter basket as well as the water reservoir. That means every morning I am brewing coffee that is laced with these chemicals! All of my leftovers are in plastic containers which are labeled as microwave safe, so I always store food, then heat it up in the microwave for lunches and dinners! I have been doing this for years! I do have health issues, some of which are talked about in this video. At 50 years of age, I must be chock full of all these chemicals! Is there any hope? Or do I call the undertakers now....

Is this bad? I mean eggs are not in direct contact with plastic (because they have to be peeled off first). Is "plastic" air bad for the cooking process? Or is this just ok solution to get your eggs cooked fast? Thanks.

    Keep in mind that during warm months or in such regions a lot of loads of bottled water and other plastic packaged foods are hauled in dry van trailers in the heat.

I wish they at least had some coating inside so it wouldn't contact the plastic directly. Doubt it would be hard to make.

I'd appreciate if you could recommend some links for further research and also perhaps giving a brief interview for the documentary I am developing. I faced a complex unclear diagnosis and started researching what could be causes, one if the main things I recently realized how much plastics is in our life and my own apartment! Also lots of plastic objects and parts of objects DO NOT have any categories and same we don't know what is in the clothes and other textiles used on a daily basis. Even cotton I've heard is modified and is harmful for health potentially 🤬. It is crazy how we all naive are and in a way manipulated through retail and food industry.
    Also imo from research perspective how can one say 100% that something is safe or not safe for health when there are 100+ influences everyday? How can you separate one factor from the other. Unless everything is the same in the focus group you can fish out something. But is it realistic? NO! People also have different genetic influences and ability to rejuvinate. Let alone astrological influences which can trigger some challenges or help to overcome something easier.

    Not all plastic or plastic water bottles are created equal. Just look at the number on the bottom of the water bottle in the recycling arrows. Safe numbers are 1, 2, 4, and 5 are safe for public consumption. Avoid 3, 6, 7. My Ice Mountain water bottle has the number 1 on the bottom. Number 3 is used in vinyl or PVC water bottles and can release harmful hormones into the water. Number six is on styrofoam containers which we all know should be avoided. And number 7 is on baby bottles which is the one that contains PBA.
