Important info regarding plastic and cancer

I just recieved this info from a good friend and felt the need to pass it on. I think it is well worth reading and paying close attention to.
Cancer Update from Johns-Hopkins




Bottled
water in your car is
very
dangerous!


On the Ellen show, Sheryl
Crow said this is what caused her breast
cancer. It has been identified as the most common cause
of the high levels of dioxin in breast cancer
tissue.


Sheryl
Crow's oncologist told her:
women
should not drink bottled water that has been left in a car.
The
heat reacts with the chemicals in the plastic of the
bottle which releases dioxin into the water. Dioxin is
a toxin increasingly found in breast cancer tissue.
So please be careful and do not drink bottled water that has
been left in a car. Pass this on to all the women in your
life.




This
information is the kind we need to know that just might save
us! Use a stainless steel canteen or a glass bottle
instead of plastic!
LET EVERYONE WHO HAS A WIFE / GIRLFRIEND /
DAUGHTER KNOW PLEASE!
This
information is also being circulated at Walter Reed
Army Medical Center

No plastic containers in microwave.


No water bottles in freezer


No plastic wrap in microwave.


A dioxin chemical causes cancer, especially breast
cancer.


Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your
plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic.
Recently, Edward
Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital , was on a TV program to explain this health hazard.




He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us.


He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using
plastic containers...


This especially applies to foods that contain fat.


He said that the combination of fat, high heat,=2 0and plastic releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body...




Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or ceramic


containers for heating food... You get the same results, only without the dioxin .


So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc.,
should be removed from the container and heated in something else.


Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper.




It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.




Hereminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved
away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the
reasons...


Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran wrap, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
