Infants and children are much more vulnerable to chemicals than adults, causing them to be more susceptible to future health problems. The main obstacle is for scientist to be able to pinpoint these problems back to BPA. In tests in a lab, though, they have found that BPA can cause many different disorders, such as impaired brain and neurological functions, cardiovascular system damage, reproductive system abnormalities, early puberty, obesity, and resistance to chemotherapy as well as heart disease and disruption of the endocrine system.
