BPA- Write to F&P, ResMed, Respironics!

[chunkyfrog]

Our environment, both natural and man-made, contains many dangers.
There are hundreds, nay, thousands of things far more dangerous than BPA.
At the top of the list is the irrational fear that allows us to permit a small risk to stop us from using a life-saving machine like cpap.
We do indeed have nothing to fear but fear itself; as fear paralyzes and takes away reason. (as we have seen here)

Why should you accept that all the food you buy incorporates the invented high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar?

I don't eat foods with HFCS. I eat very few foods with any type of added sugar.

Maybe you want to consider doing the same?

bavink i never implied in any matter to stop using cpap therapy because of bpa on the CONTRARY because i believe i should, let me say that better OBLIGED to use cpap for my health then i can demand the manufacturers of this product to make a safer machine. The fact that anything heated leaks bpa to an even higher degree (for those that use the heated tank like myself) then it is even more imperative to demand this change.

SHeffrey i have abandoned foods with HFCS for the past 5 years. i have finally left the old american junk food diet and even though i was obese and still have pounds to lose my health stats are to point that the doctors tell me if i am taking any cholesterol medication and suprised that i am alot healthier than their normal weight patients and i am very fortunate enough to live in the mediterannean where produce is extremely cheap and even more lucky i have space enough to cultivate almost half the produce i neeed by myself such as lettuce, peppers,potatoes, onions, carrots, brocolli,cauliflower, eggplants, and even raise my own chickens to avoid the flooded antibiotic and hormone chicken market and even luckier to produce my own virgin olive oil (as soon as you make olive oil it degrades fast so the best health benefits are within the first 6 months of production and with a cold press not hot press and chemicals). And just to catch you before you say it NO im not a hippie im not a stupid eco warrier i am not a vegan i love meat and i just want a healthier environment its just the norm here in the med countries to do this because people demand and are used to healthy foods. Coming from being raised on a mcdonalds diet and so much junk food the last 5 years have been a huge change in my life and i really do see a huge difference. I can tell a difference to the point if the meat is from the supermarket or the produce for that matter. YEs i still want my junk food but i learned to make an amazing juicy burger from ground meat i see the butcher make right in front of me from beef raised in fields, i also munch on ribs or other such foods but i restrict red meat to once a week and get it from a better source than the usual ready packaged ground meat full of ammonia. I am also not trying to insult you but you have been mindwashed to accept the living conditions there, i was too, born and raised in the states. ITs only when you step out of it do you see how bad it is.

Also to finish off there are alot of cpap users under the age of 40,30, like myself so it should be something to worry about.

Not born and raised in the USA, I am free of that mind washing lol

I love reading these endless posts on subjects people disagree about. I suspect no one has changed their mind.
Wulfman writes that we will all die some day. He has no proof that anyone alive will die. These claims are mere scare tactics.
My diet consists of as much preservative as I can get. Either it will preserve and keep me alive, or at least I will not need to be embalmed.

One man's endless post is another's utopia of debate:) Education and reasoning with people is the only way to change minds!

bavinck if you paid attention you would see the reference went to sheffrey not bout you. Debating is the best form of communication.

I was developing excellent critical thinking skills in early elementary school. I have never been overweight, much less obese and I have never eaten the kind of diet you were eating.

It sounds like,

i have finally left the old american junk food diet and .... i was obese and still have pounds to lose

... you are the "brainwashed" dumbass that has to be shown in midlife how to eat.

HUH??? WTF does that mean? Or, were you saying that with tongue-in-cheek?
And all those gravestones in the cemeteries and the lists of names in the obituary sections of newspapers mean WHAT?
Death is a part of "life". It's the ultimate equalizer.
Some people believe that there's "something" after this life and some people don't. I don't have any particular strong belief one way or the other. I'm keeping an open mind.

Just because everyone up till now has died is no proof that anyone will die in the future.

If there is a God, and she/he cared about our health, then why did he/she make sugars and carbs taste so good. I always eat desserts first because life is uncertain. If I was just finishing my lima beans when the giant meteorite smashed into earth killing us all instantly my last thought would be of the dessert still waiting to be eaten !

You think so? I see a lot of them are still voting Democrat. So how can they be dead?

[Stilatos]

wow nice debating skills there jeffey pulling up the dumbass card i guess getting old makes you lose the skills of speaking its ok its part of being old. You can die in peace knowing the bpa accumulated in your body plays no negative effect so why dont you let us hypochondriacs(according to you) worry about it. oh and by the way i aint even near mid life yet
