Using sample of 75 volunteers who consumed canned soup regularly, a team of researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health, found that concentrations of bisphenol A (BPA) levels in human body increase significantly after eating canned soup regularly, as reported by Bloomberg. People in the sample were served with soup brand produced by Progresso. The research study was published by the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Medical experts warned that BPA’s side effects include cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. Researchers urged food companies and processors to reduce BPA from can foods and also asked consumers to eat foods with fresh ingredients.
