After decades of animal research linked BPA (Bisphenol A) to problems with brain and reproductive development, early puberty, and a rise in both breast and prostate cancer, many manufacturers started replacing the chemical with "BPA-free" plastic alternatives, the most common of which is BPS (Bisphenol S).
