Bisphenol A (BPA) leading to obesity and cardiovascular complications: a compilation of current in vivo study
BPA is one of the most common endocrine disruptors that is widely being manufactured daily nationwide. Although scientific evidence supports claims of negative effects of BPA on humans, there is also evidence suggesting that a low level of BPA is safe. However, numerous in vivo trials contraindicate...

BPA is one of the most common endocrine disruptors that is widely being manufactured daily nationwide.
