Chemicals from plastic packaging can &#8220;migrate&#8221; into the products. Fatty and sour foods are particularly at risk. We explain which substances are dangerous &#8211; and show you the cleverest alternatives. <\/span><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">Yogurt and lemonade, sausage and vegetables, oil and gummy bears &#8211; most foodstuffs today are packed in plastic packaging. What hardly anyone realizes is that, according to information from the consumer advice center, components from all packaging can get into the food packaged inside. Dr. Konrad Grob, one of Europe&#8217;s leading packaging experts, warned years ago: &#8220;Probably 100,000 different substances enter food from packaging materials.&#8221; Most of the substances have not even been identified, not to mention their safety tested.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">That sounds dramatic! The movement of contaminants from the packaging into the food is called migration. According to information from the consumer advice center, the extent depends on seven factors:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">1. on the type of &#8220;migrating&#8221; substances<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">2. the duration of the food&#8217;s being stored in the packaging<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">3. the fat and acid contents of the foodstuff<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">4. the size of the contact surface between the food and the packaging<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">5. the temperature during production<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">6. the storage temperature<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">7. UV radiation on the food in the packaging.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">Even cardboard boxes, screw caps and food cans can leak harmful substances into food. Plasticizers, so-called phthalates, are particularly suspected. These include various phthalic acid compounds that are found in all plastics that are pliable and soft. Extra info for those interested in chemistry: Plasticizers usually start with &#8220;D&#8221; and go by names like di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) or di-isodecyl phthalate (DIDP).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">The big problem is: Plasticizers do not form a chemical bond with the plastic, but only &#8220;hold&#8221; physically. This is why they can evaporate from packaging or be virtually washed out &#8211; unfortunately, this works particularly easily with liquids, fatty foods and acids. In this way, the plasticizers can get into our food and into the air we breathe.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Why are plasticizers so dangerous?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">The substances interfere with human hormone metabolism and damage the liver. The information from the Federal Environment Agency makes it scary reading: &#8220;Some representatives of this group of substances are known as endocrine disruptors, which can damage health by altering the hormone system. Some phthalates, for example, can impair male reproductive ability. The member states of the European Union (EU), for example, classified the phthalates DEHP, DBP and BBP as toxic to reproduction. Di(2-propylheptyl)phthalate (DPHP) has been shown in animal studies to have a damaging effect on vital hormone glands, the thyroid gland and the pituitary gland. The latter controls important bodily functions and regulates the body&#8217;s hormone system. In the case of DINP and DIDP, the liver-toxic effect is the primary concern.&#8221;<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Well, enjoy your meal! <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">There are legal limits for each individual chemical. However, scientists assume that the effects could add up. Besides, the substances are now everywhere, even in house dust! The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment investigated the intake of plasticizers in 37 food groups, as well as in toys, shoes, cosmetics, textiles, house dust and the interior air of cars. The result: the main source of intake is indeed food. Scientists do not consider the amount ingested to be a health risk. However, when children were examined, the laboratory results were alarming: In 1.5 percent of the test subjects, urine samples indicated such a high intake of plasticizers that scientists could no longer safely rule out a health risk.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">Plasticizers are the worst &#8220;culprits,&#8221; but not the only ones: With our food we can also ingest the notorious bisphenol-A (BPA), as well as residues of mineral oils, adhesives, synthetic resins &#8211; and lots of microplastics. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">Coconut milk. <\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">In investigations by BUND, testers found a gigantic 510 micrograms\/kilo of the hormone toxin BPA in a can of coconut milk from the supermarket. Canned food is coated on the inside with an epoxy resin layer that is made on the basis of bisphenol-A. Coconut milk was by far the most highly contaminated canned food in tests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Tuna.<\/strong> More than 70 percent of canned tuna samples also had BPA levels ranging from 9 to 28.5 micrograms per kilogram. Incidentally, the fat content is not the decisive factor here. The highest value was measured in a can of &#8220;tuna in its own juice.&#8221; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">Canned tomatoes. <\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">The Austrian partner organization of BUND, Global2000, tested canned tomatoes for BPA. 13 out of 15 samples were contaminated, containing an average of 22 micrograms of BPA per kilogram. Fatal: Canned tomatoes are used in large quantities, especially by families with children. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Salt.<\/strong> Almost all table salts now contain microplastics. In a study, researchers from South Korea detected plastic particles in 36 of 39 salt samples from 21 countries. In each case, microplastic density was highest in sea salt, followed by salt from lakes and finally rock salt.\u202f<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Water.<\/strong> In mineral water from PET bottles, chemists detected hormone-like compounds and specifically the hormone estrogen. Water from plastic bottles contained about twice as much as water from glass bottles. Hormone-like substances are used as plasticizers. According to the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment, &#8220;up to 250 plastic particles per liter were detected in isolated cases in mineral waters,&#8221; mainly in returnable bottles. The material composition of the particles indicates contamination during cleaning and refilling of the returnable bottles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Mussels.<\/strong> In mussels from the French-Belgian-Dutch coast, food experts found two microplastic particles per gram of mussel meat. Depending on their origin, filamentous plastic particles were detected in wild North Sea mussels and mussels from the trade in amounts ranging from 2.6 to 6.1 particles per 10 g of mussel meat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>Tea bags.<\/strong> In 2019, Canadian researchers investigated whether plastics enter the water when tea bags made of nylon or PET are brewed. The result: unfortunately, lots! A single tea bag can release more than 14 billion micro- and nanoplastic particles into the water. In the laboratory test, one cup of tea contained 16 micrograms of plastic. Even normal paper bags can contain synthetic fibers, adhesives and aroma protection layers, but they are considered harmless.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">Beverage cans. <\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\">On behalf of BUND, a Bremen laboratory examined the inner coating of cola, soda and beer cans. The result: they contained 0.3 to 8.3 micrograms of bisphenol-A.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<h3 class=\"grve-element grve-title grve-align-left grve-h3\" style=\"\"><span><br>\n<p aria-level=\"1\">The only solution: shopping and feasting with a limit on plastics<br>\n<\/span><\/h3>[vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>The 20 good resolutions of the Flustix editorial team &#8211; very easy to implement starting tomorrow<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>1. Fruit and vegetables.<\/strong> Let&#8217;s buy as unpacked as possible in the supermarket, even if it has to be (absurdly) more expensive. From now on, the vegetable nets are ready to be kept in the bag or in the car!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>2. Beer and lemonade.<\/strong> We rarely treat ourselves to an iced &#8220;Tssssshhh&#8221; drink from a can anymore. We buy beer in bottles anyway, and switch completely to glass bottles for tonic and soda.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>3. Fats.<\/strong> We no longer buy cream, cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche or mayonnaise in plastic cups &#8211; if there is an alternative in glass. The same goes for olives or antipasti in oil. Glass and porcelain are the only materials from which nothing can evaporate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>4. Coconut milk.<\/strong> Let&#8217;s buy in a tetrapack for now. An even better idea is to buy fresh coconut and make coconut milk yourself for the first time. Less ambitious amateur cooks can try a mix of grated coconut and milk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>5. Bread.<\/strong> We prefer bread from the bakery or fresh shelf, and transport it in a paper bag or vegetable net. Plastic-wrapped &#8220;emergency&#8221; rolls are eliminated. We freeze some or &#8220;bake&#8221; pan bread from flour and water in a flash.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>6. Canned tomatoes.<\/strong> Are banned from the house! There is also tomato puree in glass bottles or tetrapacks &#8211; and fresh tomatoes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>7. Legumes.<\/strong> Kidney beans, chickpeas or white beans we take only in an emergency from the can. There are also legumes in jars (health food store) &#8211; and of course dried. Home-cooked chickpeas taste better anyway.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>8. Yogurt.<\/strong> Causes a veritable flood of plastic in many families. We resolve to buy yogurt in jars more often. If we have a lot of free time during the day, we might try another yogurt DIY experiment. It&#8217;s actually very easy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>9. Water.<\/strong> We only buy plastic water in exceptional cases. We prefer to fetch tap water ourselves &#8211; in glass table carafes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>10. Salt. <\/strong>Next time we go shopping, we won&#8217;t use sea salt anymore, but switch to rock salt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>11. Tea.<\/strong> We sometimes find tea bags quite practical, but now only buy organic brands. We use loose tea more often &#8211; and buy a practical filter can.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>12. Tuna. <\/strong>We&#8217;re switching to products in jars. Unfortunately, the screw-on lid is not ideal in combination with oil either. So all those who eat a lot of tuna can only reduce their consumption a little.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>13. Sausage.<\/strong> Buy fresh at the counter. Especially high-fat salami wrapped in plastic unfortunately has a good chance of absorbing plasticizers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>14. Oil. <\/strong>We buy olive oil in glass bottles anyway. From now on also sunflower oil for deep frying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>15. Snacks.<\/strong> After the tea bag shock, we no longer pour ready-made meals in a plastic cup, but transfer the powder into a bowl or porcelain cup beforehand. We no longer heat microwave meals or boil-in-a-bag dishes in the plastic packaging &#8211; simply repackage beforehand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>16. Packaging.<\/strong> Unfortunately, we have to dispose of them right now. Plastic packaging is meant to be used once and for a specific purpose. We no longer use yogurt cups or ice boxes to freeze or store other foods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>17. Take off.<\/strong> We unwrap shrink-wrapped foods as soon as possible after shopping and store them in glass or porcelain containers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>18. Butter.<\/strong> Usually comes out of the plastic tub as a canola oil and butter mixture. We are considering switching to butter. Transferring to a glass jar sounds very inconvenient.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>19. Meat counter.<\/strong> We dare to ask for the first time at the counter if we can get the meat in our tupperware. Don&#8217;t worry, a lot of customers already do it that way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 120%;\"><strong>20. Quantity. <\/strong>We no longer buy fruits and vegetables in kilo plastic trays, but rather in the exact amount that we can eat and store. In the unpackaged store, we &#8220;tap&#8221; exotic ingredients like quinoa in trial quantities for a specific recipe.1. Obst und Gem\u00fcse.
