Does eating out of a plastic container affect your mental health?

 

The other day my mom told me that I needed to put my food on a plate instead of keeping it in the container and I asked her why? She is a nurse so she knows what she is talking about most time this really made me question if this was true so I have decided to do my form post about it.

Eating out of a plastic container can affect your mental health but not only your physical health too. They can cause cancer, weakened immune system, organ problems, development in delays for kids, metabolic disorders, and  reduced fertility

 

What kind of foods will this most likely be in fattie or oli foods are the most common that can make you sick or any of these things happen. Therefore you can drink out of plastic containers or bottlers because they are not any of those things. 

 

Personally, I probably will stop eating out of plastic containers it kind is scary that all these things could happen.

  • I don't necessarily think it's eating out of plastic containers itself that can affect your mental health. Most food in plastic containers isn't good for you which does bad things for your body, and when you aren't treating your body good, you don't think to fondly of it.

    • yeah I agree with you 

  • No matter what you eat off of, there will be debris from it in your food that you ingest. Nothing is perfectly clean when you eat it. I think that a little bit of contamination can help your immune system. I do not see why this is an issue in the first place when we have been drinking the vast majority of our liquids out of a plastic container. 

  • I have never found that eating out of anything in specific has affected my mental health in any way. I wonder where the study came from that said that it is bad for you. I don't regularly eat out of plastic containers so either way I don't have to worry about it. 

    • I feel like my head doesn't hurt as much and I'm not as rushed it makes me feel better eating out off a plate 

  • I think it probably can affect your mental health if you eat out of them a lot and especially if you heat the food up in the plastic container. I don't really eat from plastic containers very often anyways but I probably will still eat out of them sometimes. 

    • I feel like it can make you feel rushed also.

  • I don't think eating out of plstic containers can affect your mental health. Honestly I don't really understand how it possibly could. If it really affected it that much, wouldn't companies put warning labels on the contaniers? I do eat out of plastic containers and I'm fine. I won't stop eating out of plastic containers. They're simple and easy.

    • maybe not this is just my pov

  • I don't think that eating out of plastic containers can affect mental health. How would it affect it? I don't think I'll stop eating out of plastic containers because nothing bad has happened to me yet from eating out of plastic containers. Yes, sometimes I do eat out of plastic containers.
