Fox News: Plastic water bottle left in a hot car? Think twice before sipping from it
Experts warn that leaving plastic water bottles in hot cars can lead to chemical leaching and bacterial growth, posing health risks. Chemicals like BPA and phthalates can leach from PET plastic, while bacteria can thrive in opened bottles, potentially leading to infections.
To mitigate these risks, experts recommend using stainless steel or glass bottles, which are easier to clean and can better withstand heat. Avoid reusing single-use plastic bottles, especially in warm environments, to reduce exposure to harmful substances and microbes.
