Shopping for health products proves challenging

Studies continue to find that contaminants are being found in a wide range of products, including food, consumer goods, and even personal care products. For example, a study published in the journal of Environmental Science and Technology found that microplastics (plastic particles smaller than 5mm) were present in 93% of bottled water tested.

Other research has found that toxic chemicals such as phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA) are commonly found in food packaging and personal care products. These findings highlight the challenges of finding truly environmentally-friendly products and the need for more stringent regulations and oversight to ensure that these contaminants are not present in consumer goods.
