Pureray UV Baby Bottle Could Be A Baby Killer

I get it — a baby bottle with a built-in UV lamp for killing any germs that might be lurking in the formula. Parents would eat this up. But would it do more harm than good?

Seriously, we have become a generation of germaphobes with our Purell bottles and crazy germ-killing gadgets. We are never exposed to germs so our resistance is down. That’s probably why everyone always seems to have a cold. So ditch the UV lamps, go out and and push that pram around town to toughen up. [Yanko]

    being that the engrish is awesome and the scientific explanations of how it works are blatantly incorrect I can only say nice photoshop work perhaps someone will release a product like this one day but not these people

    There is evidence to show that babies and children exposed to germs (within reason of course, don’t dip your kids in raw sewage) are have tougher more resistant immune systems as adults. So, eating a little dirt won’t kill you, and what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

    Although ’super-bugs’ pose a serious threat I’m more concerned by the fact the this bottle appears to be made by Aperture Science.

    They don’t have a very good ethical track record.
