On April 18th, 2008, Health Canada announced that Bisphenol A is toxic to human health. Bisphenol A is used in Nalgene Brand polycarbonate water bottles, but on the same day Nalgene announced that all Bisphenol A products will be phased out.An alternative is available in the polyethylene versions of these products (made out of HDPE, Nalgene's traditional material), which are free of these chemicals. They can be identified by their greater flexibility, by their translucent, "milky" appearance, and by the number 2 triangular plastic recycling symbol on the bottom, rather than the number 7 on a polycarbonate bottle.
