Very often you can hear about green living, green houses, green cars, etc. It is important to live green and learn more about it. In our time, when pollution is everywhere, we have to be aware that raising green children is crucial for their health. The knowledge about a green life approach will help parents to prioritize they choices about food, products and services. There is great help you can receive from green pediatricians.
Moms are asking what is the exact different between a regular and a green pediatrician.
The green doctors are using green medication and products. To raise a healthy child it is a whole process from choosing the vaccination to using glass bottles. Not all the people know that the regular vaccine contains mercury and the liquid absorbs chemicals from the plastic bottle. One of the basic chemical compounds of plastic baby bottles and nipples is bisphenol A (BPA). Bisphenol A is now considered an endocrine-disruptor, which mimics the naturally occurring hormone estrogen. Studies have linked low-dose BPA exposure with such effects as: permanent changes to the genital tract; increase prostate weight; decline in testosterone; breast cells predisposed to cancer; prostate cells more sensitive to hormones and cancer; and hyperactivity.
Avoid the plastic bottles, which are made from #7 polycarbonate since these tend to leak BPA. A less-toxic options available is made from #5 plastic. You can find the plastic number on the bottom of most bottles.
The safest option is tempered glass since there is no chance of any leakage of any kind. More and more companies are starting to manufacture glass bottles once again and consumer demand is at its highest. Some of them are producing bisphenol free plastic bottles.
