I'm trying to determine if it is fact or urban legend that to continuously
reuse plastic beverage bottles is toxic to our bodies. Should they be
immediately discarded? Why? Can they be reused for two months? Should we
only reuse them for the type of beverage originally purchased in them? Is
washing them in dish detergent harmful to their chemical composition? Thanks!
