5. Canned Tomatoes

Endocrinologists who study bisphenol-A won’t eat canned tomatoes due to the linings in the cans. Most tin cans are lined with bisphenol-A, a synthetic estrogen.

Bisphenol-A has been linked to many illnesses from heart disease, obesity, and reproductive issues.

The acidic nature of tomatoes seems to cause BPA to leak into the product inside.  Most endocrinologists won’t even consider eating canned tomatoes.  Sounds like we shouldn’t either.

Your alternative? Buy tomatoes sold in glass containers. These are sold in most health food stores and Trader Joe’s.
