Parents can take several steps to reduce their children's exposure to BPA:
- Check Labels: Look for products labeled as "BPA-free." - Avoid Heating Plastics: Do not microwave or heat food in plastic containers. - Opt for Alternatives: Use glass or stainless steel containers for storing food and drinks. - Be Cautious with Canned Foods: Choose fresh or frozen foods over canned items, as the linings of cans often contain BPA. - Limit Receipt Handling: Minimize handling of thermal paper receipts and wash hands after touching them.
