Microplastics in the Body:An Invisible Danger
Dear Patients,
Microplastic pollution has become a serious global issue. From the depths of the oceans to the peaks of the Alps, and even in Arctic ice and human tissue – microplastics are now found almost everywhere.
Microplastics in the environment and daily life
Every year, 8 to 10 million tons of plastic end up in the ocean, much of it in the form of microplastics (particles smaller than 5 mm).
These tiny particles have been found in marine mammals, seabirds, soil, rivers, and even the Arctic.
Microplastics are spread by the wind and are inhaled daily, particularly indoors. They are also present in many foods, including sea salt, fish, mussels, honey, and beer. Studies show that up to 80% of global water samples contain microplastics. Mineral water in PET bottles, can contain thousands of particles per liter.
What impact does this have on our health?
Recent studies have shown that microplastics can be found in the human body, for example in blood, lung tissue, stool and even the placenta. These particles enter our bodies through the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. Once inside, they can accumulate in our organs and may lead to inflammation, cell damage, hormonal imbalances, and potentially neurological conditions.
