Re: pthallates leaching from plastic bottles...

[Guest guest]

We had a guy come speak to our group about a year ago who had recovered from

CFS/

MCS and one of his main messages was that the chemicals in plastic bottles can

and do

leach out, no matter how " safe " they're claimed to be. He carries a glass

bottle with him

and drinks from that..

thanks for your reply !
