This week, the EU’s food safety agency, EFSA, acknowledged that the previous maximum value for bisphenol A was 100,000 times too high and that it had “re-evaluated” its position on the substance’s hazards. However, the authorities has not changed its position because of the difficulties faced by males. As a result, the safe alternative bisphenol F’s limit levels, which interfere with boys’ embryonic development, remain unchanged.
The threshold doses, or TDIs, provide an estimate of how much of a drug (expressed in kilograms of body weight) may be consumed every day for the rest of one’s life without showing any appreciable dangers.
A temporary TDI of 4,000 nanograms per kilogram of body weight per day was established in the most recent assessment of limit values that the EFSA made in 2015.
The TDI has been established at 0.04 nanograms per kilogram of body weight per day by the EFSA’s Expert Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes and Processing Aids (CEP) in its most recent evaluation, which was released last week.
According to the ruling, the authority’s first evaluation suggested that we may have ingested 100,000 times too much. Despite the fact that several researchers have been warning about the risks for years—dangers that this publication has covered since 2012, among other things—this is still the case.
According to the official explanation, research published in the literature between 2013 and 2018—especially those demonstrating the “damaging effects of [bisphenol A] on the immune system”—are to blame for the extreme decrease of the TDI, not the men’s hormonal issues.
In fact, sperm counts in Western males decreased by 59 percent between 1973 and 2011 according to research published in 2017. Scientists have long warned that BPA is harmful to the hormonal system of developing boys.
The epidemiologist Shanna Swan predicts that widespread sterility will occur in the Western world as early as 2045. The existence of mankind would be in danger in such situation, according to reports from publications like the British Guardian from a year ago.
According to Shanna Swan, hormonal imbalances contribute to a rise in male infertility as well as conditions like obesity, sluggishness, diminished sex drive, and impotence. All of the signs are becoming more prevalent among men throughout the Western world.
Bisphenol F, a popular replacement for bisphenol A, also disrupts male hormones.
Boys achieve worse academic outcomes
Bisphenol F can cause alterations in a gene that is critical for brain development, Swedish researchers found last year.
Only in males may prenatal exposure to bisphenol F be associated to reduced IQ at age seven. The Swedish study that Fria Tider virtually single-handedly brought to light last year demonstrated this.
Because animal studies have revealed that the chemical interacts with a kind of white blood cell that is crucial to cellular immunological systems and weakens the immune system, EFSA has recently substantially lowered the limit values for simply bisphenol A, one of the bisphenols.
The EFSA discovers that both average and high exposures to bisphenol A in all age groups surpass the new limit values, indicating that health issues can be anticipated. This is done by comparing the new TDI with estimates of consumers’ exposure to this chemical in their food.
The EFSA evaluation is currently available for public comment and has been forwarded to all member states. However, the EU authority does not plan to address or allow public input on the choice to exclude additional bisphenols, such as bisphenol A, from the current evaluation.
