Getting Big on BPA: Role for BPA in Obesity? [PDF]
Bisphenol-A (BPA) is one of the most widely used industrial chemicals with applications in the construction of food and drink containers from which it can leach and enter the body (1). It is no surprise then that the vast majority of humans have low but detectable levels of BPA in blood and urine (2). BPA has also been detected in breast milk and fetal
