Plastics contain Bisphenol A (BPAs) and phthalates which are endocrine disruptors, meaning they can mimic the body’s natural hormones and thereby cause a raft of health problems. They can leech out of the plastics and into food you may have stored in plastics containers.
A far healthier alternative for food storage is hemp, and my good friends Helen and Max in Queensland, Australia have brought back this wisdom of what used to be. Please watch the video as they explain.
