Bisphenol A (BPA) is the most well-known compound from the bisphenol family. As BPA
has recently come under pressure, it is being replaced by compounds very similar in structure, but
data on the occurrence of these BPA analogues in food and human matrices are limited. The main
objective of this work was to investigate human exposure to BPA and analogues and the associated
health effects. We performed a literature review of the available research made in humans, in in vivo
and in vitro tests. The findings support the idea that exposure to BPA analogues may have an impact
on human health, especially in terms of obesity and other adverse health effects in children.
