Why Glass?
Studies conducted for the EPA in North Carolina in 2007 have shown that perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) affects the immune system, causes liver cancer, alter thyroid hormones and induces testicular and pancreatic cancer. Also known as C8 or perfluorooctanoate, PFOA is a synthetic chemical used in the emulsion process, particularly in the production of non-stick cookware. PFOA is also known as an endocrine disruptor for its potential “estrogenic” effect.
Traditional metal cookware also releases metal residues that pose risks to our family’s health, especially when exposed to reactive ingredients such as the Filipino favorite vinegar in our local dishes Adobo and Paksiw.
Even water bottles made with reactive materials such as plastic have been found to release chemicals, such as diethylhexyl adipate and bisphenol A (BPA), into food and beverage products. According to research, diethylhexyl adipate has the potential to cause damage to liver and testes, and may cause cancer. Bisphenol A has been found to cause heart and liver disease, brain and hormone development problems, and even cancer.
