When studies are done on juvenile mice, they use BPA concentrations that work out to be be about the equivalent of a 200 pound man eating a nalgene bottle a day. Being a fully grown adult with normal and healthy hormonal level, the amount of BPA that you get from normal (or even slightly abnormal but irregular) usage shouldn't have a significant impact.


Having now taken the time and trouble to re-review the article I linked to in my original post, I see the following about risk:

“...it takes as little as one serving of canned foods to expose a person to levels of BPA that have been shown to cause harm in laboratory animals.”
