BPA chemical may be tied to heart disease | Fox News:
People exposed to higher levels of Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical widely used in food packaging, may have a slightly higher risk of heart disease, according to UK researchers.
They can't say for sure if some factor other than BPA, like weight or blood pressure, might be the underlying reason for the heart problems. Still, this is the third study from the team to find such a link.
"We've now shown this association in two quite separate ways, in completely different people... and at very different exposure levels," said lead researcher Dr. David Melzer of Peninsula Medical College in Exeter, UK. "It's getting a bit intriguing, really."
