EXETER, England, Aug. 26 (UPI) — British and other researchers have identified changes in testosterone levels in men exposed to bisphenol A, a chemical used in food and drink containers.
Researchers at the Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry and the University of Exeter, both in England, and colleagues linked higher BPA exposure with small increases in levels of testosterone in the blood.
The large population study, published in Environmental Health Perspectives, found the average BPA daily of more 5 micrograms per day exposure in the European study population was slightly higher than recent comparable estimates for the U.S.
