Newsletter 4.22.22 - Happy Earth Day 2022!: 10 Types of Toxic Food Packaging & Healthy Alternatives
#7 Single-Use Plastics - source: alive.com
Many unsuspecting consumers reuse plastic food packaging, despite its design for single-use. This is especially risky with #3 polyvinyl chloride (PVC) food containers. PVC has one of the highest toxicity levels of plastic packaging and is guilty of leaking hormone disrupting di-n-butyl phthalate into food. Studies show that the more a PVC container is reused, the more phthalates the food in it picks up. Cleaner alternatives include “phthalate-free” or glass containers.

Read the full article to learn about all 10 toxic food packaging to avoid and healthy alternatives for you and the environment.
