I have read this too and have been a bit worried about it myself. I know now I see some plastic products that will have a sticker on it saying "BPA free", but I have yet to see something like that on canned products, so it does worry me. I used to eat canned beans and tomatoes in large quantities as I was always cooking some sort of chili or curry. Nowadays I cut down my use of all cans, as I'm still uncertain about the health risks.
When I was younger I felt very healthy and indestructible, but as I get older I notice I am more susceptible to illnesses, injuries, viruses, etc, so maybe I am being overcautious, but you never know.
