Dear Gladish,
Thank you very much for this useful and healthful insight into the callous intentions of the bottle manufacturers. No one cares about the lives and what they are eating and drinking; everyone is too busy raking in the moolah at others' expense.
There was a recent study that sheds light on plastic-packed food as well. The packaging plastic is made of a chemical that induces feminine qualities in males.
So, people, it's a request to please look into the matter of the food you are all consuming. Trust me, ignorance is not bliss when it comes to health, as the saying goes, "you are what you eat."
Warm regards,

I think, you are referring wrong numbers. I do not materials for rating 1 to 7. However, one of message I received last year and it is saying use only bottle which is marked above 3 and 7 marked bottle is excellent to use.
Thanks

Dear Lakshmi,
If there is no number, it means the product was made without any authorization and approval from the government. This is because the numbering system is established by standards practices, and manufacturers are required to declare the ingredients used in manufacturing the product.

And one more thing, Lakshmi, we should not use unnumbered bottles or plastic/polythene materials as they may be made of recycled materials and can cause significant harm to our health. This includes the polythene cover we use to pack our daily items like vegetables and provisions, which also should bear a number on its packaging. Please avoid using unnumbered plastic materials.

Dear Gladish,
The information is very good. Some time back, I read that PET bottles should not be reused. However, bottles numbered 6 and above are safe for repeated usage. This information contradicts with what you said - that #6 and #7 are the worst. If you observe water bottles manufactured for school children (by reputed manufacturers), the number will be 6 or 7. Can you please check and reconfirm?
Thank you.

It's better that we do a Google search to check the veracity of messages that we get by email before posting. For example, according to Reusing Plastic Bottles Causes Cancer Hoax, the reuse of plastic bottles mails that we receive is a hoax.
I checked the web and found what Cancer Research UK has to say about this at Plastic bottles: Cancer Research UK. Also, see Google.
