Thanks for the feedback. I am slowly getting rid of the plastic and aluminum in my kitchen and changing to pottery and glass. My two children are grown and I don’t have any grandkids yet, so the baby bottles thing isn’t an immediate concern. But, nowadays, articles about the dangers of plastic catch my eye.

[Off topic: At my age, (late 40s), estrogen dominance is something for me to watch for, (actually it’s something for all girls and women to watch for at every age), and I have heard that the polycarbonate plastic sometimes increases estrogen levels way too much, which is very very bad for a woman’s physical AND emotional health when it proportionally throws off all the other levels (such as progesterone), so, that is why I am trying to get away from polycarbonate plastic.

I also take Nature’s Sunshine wild yam capsules and use Rexall progesterone cream from Wal-Mart to help avoid estrogen dominance and to help keep my progesterone up where I need it to be.]

Good idea...I will be, as well. My two children are also grown, and no grandchildren should be coming for some time (I hope : ).....but they'll be told about this when the time comes....
