Bisphenol A (BPA) is an industrial chemical.
It is used to make polycarbonate plastic resins, exposy resins and other products for example water bottles, baby bottles, baby dummies and plastic containers (plus much much more).
In many countries it has been banned however in Australia it is still used in many of our products.
More than likely the water bottle you are using or the plastic container you are heating your food up in the microwave contain BPA.
The Australian Government has recently announced a phase out of plastic baby bottles containing BPA however there are still many on the shelves that contain it.
