Because companies don't have to prove something is safe, you have to prove something unsafe.

Reminds me of the BPA free garbage. Many of the replacements are/were worse than BPA. But no one seemed to care.



The complaint about BPA was that it's an estrogen mimic (parts of the human body can react to it as if it were estrogen). If you eat a lot (a whole lot) of soy products, soy can do the same.

BPA has mostly been replaced with BPS ... which is also an estrogen mimic.
