Chinks poisoning sportswear with BPA
(www.sott.net)https://www.sott.net/article/491900-A-growing-number-of-sports-bras-shirts-and-leggings-brands-found-with-high-levels-of-toxic-chemical-watchdog-warnsinclude leggings from Athleta, Champion, Kohl's, Patagonia, sports bras from Sweaty Betty, athletic shirts from Fabletics and shorts from Adidas, Champion and Nike.
Previously, the CEH warned consumers in October that sports bras from Athleta, PINK, Asics, The North Face, Brooks, All in Motion, Nike, and FILA that were tested for BPA over a six months period showed the clothing could expose wearers to up to 22 times the safe limit of BPA
The group had also tested athletic shirts in October from brands that included The North Face, Brooks, Mizuno, Athleta, New Balance, and Reebok and found similar results.
To date, the watchdog said its investigations have found BPA only in polyester-based clothing containing spandex.
