We tested the cord blood of 10 infants in racial and ethnic minority groups, and found a number of previously undetected chemicals, BPA among them. You can read the full report here: http://bit.ly/8pJLLs. Or (if you're like me and eternally short on time...) head straight for the 3-page Exec Summary, FAQ, or our Healthy Pregnancy Tips!

Why can't we stop this, class action sue, etc? My son has been on Similac Alimentum due to a milk protein allergy since 7 weeks old. He didn't respond well to powdered formula. Why does my son have to be exposed to BPA when he didn't have a choice in his diet? I'm so raging mad! So if BPA is banned, why are they getting away with this?
