Scientists have proven that reusing plastic bottles is harmful to health.
American experts shared the facts.
Plastic products are intended for single use, reports the Daily Mail .
If they are used over and over again, toxic substances are released. They are harmful to health, experts warn.
These compounds increase the risks associated with esophageal and pancreatic cancer.
Therefore, it is better to throw a bottle of mineral water straight into the trash rather than reuse it.
It is even worse when this plastic is exposed to heat. For example, a hot drink is poured into it. A similar effect is observed if you leave a bottle of liquid under the scorching rays of the sun.
Experts also do not recommend putting very hot food into plastic containers. In this case, hazardous compounds also penetrate into the food.
