The Health Hazards of Plastic Drink Bottles

Have you ever wondered just how healthy the plastic water bottle you drink out of is?  Well if you really knew how bad for your health they are, would you use one?  Plastic water bottles contain many nasty chemicals that leach into your drinking water and can over time make you very sick.  Some of the chemicals are BPA and phthalates.  These are very dangerous to our health and high doses have been shown to change hormone levels and cause birth defects.  These chemicals are especially dangerous to young children and their growing bodies and cause a range of health problems and childhood diseases. 

Then you have the effect on the environment, 65% of the plastic water bottles that people buy end up in our landfill and can take up to 100 years to break down.  It is also a hazard for our beautiful natural waterways and can take the lives of many marine life who can choke on plastic lids.

A solution to this problem is to use stainless steel water bottles, these are better for your health and the environment.  The life expectancy of a stainless steel water bottle is about 100 years, which means you can keep using it over and over again.  There is also no nasty chemicals that can leach into the drinking water with a stainless steel water bottle.
