Bpa in protein shakers?

I recently learned that plastic bottles contain bpa, a chemical that ups oestrogen and lowers testosterone.
I was wondering wether anyone knows wether or not the Maximuscle shakers contain bpa, or if i should invest in a bpa-free blender bottle, which is a shaker available on ebay for under £7. Id rather not fork out money without knowing, but having put the maximuscle shaker in the dishwasher a few times, its potentialy a bpa-mine.

I now avoid using plastic bottles, and when out and about, drink only from bottles opened that day

Either way you're dead dude.

Me, you, everyone on this board and everybody we know. We're all dead.

Is it worth it to worry so much? Clean your plastic at cool temperatures and dont pull your hair out worrying

throw it away and get a new one if itll make you feel better.

chances are its been heated. like during the manufacturing process, where they melt the plastic beads its made out of.
