Stop touching receipts. They're covered in toxic endocrine disrupting chemicals that stick to your skin and quickly absorb into your blood stream to wreck havoc on your hormones, fertility, cognition, and countless other side effects of exposure.
The EcoCenter did an analysis in 2022 where they tested hundreds of paper receipts from 144 major retailers and stores in 22 different states and found that 80% of receipts tested had BPS, which was a slight improvement from 84% in a prior 2017 study. They also found supposed safer chemical alternatives in 20% of them, up from 2% in 2017, but I think we should always wearer of these "safer" alternatives. We usually find out years later that these aren't safe either, and they're sometimes even more toxic and persistent in the body and passed down to offspring.
EWG and the University of Missouri Bio Science lab have also done a study where they collected 36 receipts comparing the amounts of BPA, and it found that the total mass of BPA used on a receipt is 250x to 1000x greater than the amount of BPA normally found in a can of food. Not only that, the BPA/BPS on the receipts is a free form of BPA that easily rubs off with simple touch, so you are getting a much higher amount absorbed systematically than you would by eating canned food, which has varying amounts based on various conditions like food acidity, temperature exposure, etc.
Considering we have rapidly collapsing fertility rates, skyrocketing autism rates, gender dysphoria everywhere, extreme mental illness, all kinds of cancer, feminized men, and a massively overweight population, you'd think the government and health regulators would be taking easy action against the use of BPA/BPS and other endocrine disrupting chemicals in receipts and other products, but as always it's profit above all else to fulfill the underlying agenda of those at the top to subjugate the population to sick and twisted games of eugenics.
All these corporations could easily afford the switch to back printed paper receipts like it used to be, and yet they don't. It's very important to reflect on why that is, not stopping at just a simple "profit motive" justification...
If you want to combat these exposures and be the 1 in 10 person with no measured BPA in their blood stream, start supporting your detoxification system with a carnivorous diet rich in fat soluble vitamins and amino acids like taurine and glycine to keep glutathione levels high, get adequate hydration with minerals like magnesium, potassium, bicarbonate, etc, daily sunlight whenever possible, earthing when you sleep, reducing EMF/RF exposures as much as possible especially when sleeping, and most importantly, you need exercise or use a sauna multiple times a week to make yourself sweat.
There are several studies on saunas showing the excretion of chemicals like BPA/BPA in your sweat, along with pesticides, heavy metals, and other environmental toxins. from Twitter.
