PCOS has a friend in Assemblywoman Betsy Butler

You're likely to have heard this news if you live in Los Angeles, but for those who haven't, it's worth repeating.

California Assemblywoman Betsy Butler's bill, AB 1319, the Toxin-Free Infants and Toddlers Act, banning BPA in baby bottles, formula cans, and similar products, was signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown. After July 1, 2013, the maximum amount of BPA in these products, will not be allowed to exceed 0.1 parts per billion.

This is a huge development for PCOS. Even though the bill is oriented toward babies and children, it officially recognizes that BPA is a health risk. It paves the way for more actions to be taken to get BPA out of adult foods and products as well.

If you have five minutes, please take the time to thank Assemblywoman Butler for her advocacy. Even if you don't live in California, or in her district. She's done a good thing for your children…and for public health in general. You can contact her at http://www.betsybutler.com/contact.php
