No matter how many times you get this E-mail, Please send it on!!!! Bottled water in your car is very dangerous!

On the Ellen show, Sheryl Crow said that 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 microwaves. No plastic water bottles in freezers. No plastic wrap in microwaves.

Dioxin chemical causes cancer, especially breast cancer. Dioxins are highly poisonous to cells in our bodies. Don’t freeze plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic. Recently the 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 food in the microwave using plastic containers….. This especially applies to foods that contain fat.

He said that the combination of fat, high heat and plastic releases dioxin into the food.

White bathroom tissue is wood fiber that has been bleached ... also contain dioxin. Rubbing this stuff on or near blood vessels is the same as direct injection.

Careful! You will greatly upset Ponce with that comment.

[Serpo]

I bet Ponce it too old to give a shit.

No Im sure he can still...........forget it.....

[Dogman]

No Im sure he can still...........forget it.....

In general we are born shitting and we will die shitting.

Just saying!

[TheNocturnalEgyptian]

I just reuse the same glass bottle over and over to drink out of. I carry it everywhere and get a lot of comments, but who cares.

[Dogman]

Hate it when the water gets hot in the plastic and then has that shitty taste, bought a ss insulated water bottle and now I may buy water in plastic when on the road or whatever and fill the steel one. No funky taste. Have always figured if you can taste it , it can not be good for you.

[StreetsOfGold]

There was an epiisode of Man,women wild in which they used a plastic water bottle to heat some water to drink.
Perhaps they should have mentioned that this should only be done in an emergency situation although, I myself would have looked for a better solution.

[StreetsOfGold]

I do the same thing. The glass bottles I use are mason jars (from food) because I like the addition of the lid.
I've had a few comments myself but after explaining why, the the light goes on with the practicality of it.

She has a new book out. ::)

Where is Book? I shouldn't have to do this. I like Crow. :)

[Uncle Salty]

Plastics also contain xeno-estrogenic mimicking compounds that are not good for the prostate.

Isnt she one of the delicious recipies.....mmmmm

Jesus, I hope I never get old :D

[Dogman]

She can't be too delicious given she only uses "one square" of toilet paper per toilet visit.

Who cares. about squares? This one is on the list of the ones that would not get kicked out of bed , for any reason! She does bring out the nasty , in every good way that counts! :D

i have an aluminum yakima one i use. it says "take it easy" under yakima (i guess that's their slogan). i wrote "don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy" under it in black sharpie. i get a lot of comments as well.

BPA-Exposed Male Deer Mice Are Demasculinized and Undesirable to Females, New Study Finds (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/06/110627151712.htm)

ScienceDaily (June 29, 2011) — While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration notes "some concern" with the controversial chemical BPA, and many other countries, such as Japan and Canada, have considered BPA product bans, disagreement exists amongst scientists in this field on the effects of BPA in animals and humans. The latest research from the University of Missouri shows that BPA causes male deer mice to become demasculinized and behave more like females in their spatial navigational abilities, leading scientists to conclude that exposure to BPA during human development could be damaging to behavioral and cognitive traits that are unique to each sex and important in reproduction.

"The BPA-exposed deer mice in our study look normal; there is nothing obviously wrong with them. Yet, they are clearly different," said Cheryl Rosenfeld, associate professor in biomedical sciences in the College of Veterinary Medicine and investigator in the Bond Life Sciences Center. "Females do not want to mate with BPA-exposed male deer mice, and BPA-exposed males perform worse on spatial navigation tasks that assess their ability to find female partners in the wild. This study sets the stage for BPA researchers to examine how BPA might differentially impact the behavioral and cognitive patterns of boys versus girls. Investigators looking for obvious BPA-induced differences, such as chromosome deletions or DNA mutations, could be missing subtle behavioral differences that eventually lead to long-term adverse outcomes, including demasculinization of male behaviors with ensuing decreased reproductive fitness."

In the study, female deer mice were fed BPA-supplemented diets two weeks prior to breeding and throughout lactation. The mothers were given a dosage equivalent to what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration considers a non-toxic dose and safe for mothers to ingest. At weaning (25 days of age), the deer mice offspring were placed on a non-supplemented BPA diet and their behavior tested when they matured into adults.

When sexually mature, researchers tested each mouse's ability to navigate a maze to safety. This enhanced spatial navigational ability of male deer mice is important because it allows them to find mates that are dispersed throughout the environment. Females do not have to search to find mates and thus their navigational abilities have not been enhanced by evolution. It was these navigational skills, among others, that were tested in the laboratory setting. Each animal had two five-minute opportunities per day, for seven days, to try to find its way into a home cage through one of several holes placed around the edge of an open maze which was marked with a set of visible navigational cues. Many male mice that had been exposed to BPA early in their development never found the correct exit. By comparison, male mice that had not been exposed to BPA consistently found the hole leading to their home cage within the time limit, some on the first day. In addition, the untreated mice quickly learned the most direct approach to finding the correct hole, while the exposed males appeared to employ a random, inefficient trial and error strategy, Rosenfeld said.

In addition, male deer mice exposed to BPA were less desirable to female deer mice. Females primed to breed were tested in a so-called mate choice experiment. The females' level of interest in a stranger male was measured by observing specific preferential behaviors, such as nose-to-nose sniffing and the amount of time the female spent evaluating her potential partner. These behaviors assess a potential mate's genetic fitness. Rosenfeld said that both non-exposed and BPA-exposed females favored control males over BPA-exposed males on a two-to-one basis.

"These findings presumably have broad implications to other species, including humans, where there are also innate differences between males and females in cognitive and behavioral patterns," Rosenfeld said. "In the wide scheme of things, these behavioral deficits could, in the long term, undermine the ability of a species such as the deer mouse to reproduce in the wild. Whether there are comparable health threats to humans remains unclear, but there clearly must be a concern."

I highly doubt that it was just hot water bottles that caused her breast cancer.

The chick was a roadie/backup/fill in for a good part of her career. Just saying.

[madfranks]

Forget bottled water that's simply been left in a car; that stuff is shipped in unconditioned trucks where it's practically cooked before being put on the shelf.

[hoarder]

I think only so much dioxin can leach out. Leave the water bottle out in the sun a couple days, dump the storebought water out and fill it with well water and keep it out of the sun. I use them over and over. Needless to say, my plastic water bottles look kinda dingy.

I agree, just more bullshit propaganda as far as I'm concerned...lol ....she more than likely was pre-disposed to aquire breast cancer...I'd like to know more about her familiar Hx.....

[Neuro]

She would have done well dropping her bra frequently also. Women who are obsessive about wearing a bra at all times double their risk of breast cancer. I think it is also healthy for males to look at breasts... ;D Double winning!
