Several months back I came across a news type show here on youtube. They had on a microbiologist to talk about microplastics. He was saying how microplastics (and nano-plastics) are pretty much everywhere on the face of this planet. Microplastics he said have even been discovered as far away as both the north & south poles as well as antarctica. He said they are in our food, clothes, toiletries, and our drinking water. He said it's found not only in plastic water bottles but also glass water bottles because of the plastic that's used during the filtration process at the water plants. He also said that home water filters that you attach to your sink were also found to have shed microplastic into the water as it comes out of the faucet. He said the stuff is in the air we breath at home because of furniture and carpeting that release it into the air. Even our electronic equipment shed microplastic into the air he said. The interior of your automobile which includes any type of mass transit and airplanes, yep you guessed it, microplastics! I kid you not the look on his face as he was saying all of this was such a depressed and sad look. Oh, and let's not forget about microrubber which is shed from automobile tires! We're breathing that stuff in too!

Great video Mike, you always bring such relevant content, keep it up! I have a question for anyone that cares to give an answer. If your only choices were drinking tap water or store bought bottled water whcih would you choose and why?

I’ve heard insulated stainless steel cups can use lead. So I got a non insulated bottle for my son. For myself I use the brand Bink for a glass water bottle
Or increased levels of micro plastics is associated with increased consumption of ultra processed food, perhaps? I suspect that it may be multi-factorial.
I think plastic (HDPE) cutting boards are another ubiquitous source for micro plastic exposure. After 20 years in commercial kitchens I can confirm how much abrasion from slicing and chopping they get.
I use metal tumblers for coffee but I love the girl but they all have plastic lids. It’s a plastic lid that you use over and over any better than just drinking from a regular to go cup? Is silicone better than plastic?
Where do I get water from and how do I store it to prevent getting microplastics? I was thinking of getting a Reverse Osmosis water filtration system off of amazon for a couple hundred dollars but that strips the water of everything including the good thing I imagine.
Think it was a Boston university study found the majority of micro plastics in plastic bottles comes from the intial opening of the bottle being released from the cap when it recoils

You’re right about the plastic but giving advice to eat whole healthy real food - does not eliminate the plastic unfortunately. Even when I buy grass fed meat - it is packed in plastic.

Use wooden or stainless steel spoons for cooking, you don't want all that plastic utensils in your kitchen drawer. Also be very conservative what you put on your skin, read those ingredients!
No one that ever took care if mevand my late husband or my niececthat isn't being told about it I nononger drink from anything plastic unless I forget my personal cup
i wish someone investigates weither these particles woulsd sink to the bottom or go to the top if the water is left to rest , this would allow in home filtration , also can they pass through filters like the ones used to clear drink water at home , also mixing water with oil may make the particles attach to the oil ? Not sure
Corelation is not causation. Just as you believe LDL is not causative of heart disease, you can't seriously believe microplastics is causative of these things. Sure, people with metabolic issue may consume products that expose them to more microplastics but it's what the actual product is doing to there body.
Looking into the study, but not very deeply yet. Difficult to understand the data, only 101 participants. Very large dispersion in plots... Even though I absolutely agree with the harms of microplastics and I try to use wooden or metal utensils in the kitchen, there could, however, be other explanations. The people admited to the hospital with all these symptoms may already have received different injections to stabilize their conditions. Maybe drip bulbs maybe something else. Since we know heart problems are very probable in diabetics, these may be people who regularily inject insulin. They may be on hormone replacement therapy, again may have regular injections. And we have papers like "Microplastics and nanoplastics released from injection syringe, solid and liquid dimethylpolysiloxane". Somehow, I feel that it is very natural, the more ill the person is, the more different injections the person gets.
If we've got room for trillions of bacteria and virii in our bodies, we've got room for some microplastics. There is such a thing as benign substances.
The difference is that those trillions of microorganisms are things we have co-evolved WITH...millions of years..... Microplastics are Brand new... I'm not fear mongering...I drink spring water from plastic bottles myself. ..I'm just saying your comparison is nonsense.
What makes you think micro/nano plastics are benign when introduced to the body? E.g. our Cell walls are surrounded by a lipid sheath, microplastics disrupt the cohesion of that membrane, its a foreign body not made to interact with our biology. I wouldn't call that a "benign" presence.
@@ghost9-9ghost Just because something can be measured, doesn't mean it's something to worry about. If plastics come out in our feces, that's exactly where they're supposed to be: rejected.
@@_FMK Most plastics are quite inert. That means they don't react with much. Our cell biology is not looking to bond with inert materials, rather bioactive ones.
@@HuFlungDung2 Our cell biology may not be looking to bond with plastics - but when plastic is jammed into the membrane matrix there are going to be issues. Saying it's "inert" doesnt mean it can't act as a blunt force instrument.

Since we know heart problems are very probable in diabetics, these may be people who regularily inject insulin. They may be on hormone replacement therapy, again may have regular injections. And we have papers like "Microplastics and nanoplastics released from injection syringe, solid and liquid dimethylpolysiloxane". Somehow, I feel that it is very natural, the more ill the person is, the more different injections the person gets.
4 time the "risk". That's 300% RRR. High LDL-C is probably 30% RRR. LOL
If we've got room for trillions of bacteria and virii in our bodies, we've got room for some microplastics. There is such a thing as benign substances.
The difference is that those trillions of microorganisms are things we have co-evolved WITH...millions of years.....
Microplastics are Brand new...
I'm not fear mongering...I drink spring water from plastic bottles myself. ..I'm just saying your comparison is nonsense.
What makes you think micro/nano plastics are benign when introduced to the body? E.g. our Cell walls are surrounded by a lipid sheath, microplastics disrupt the cohesion of that membrane, its a foreign body not made to interact with our biology. I wouldn't call that a "benign" presence.
@@ghost9-9ghost Just because something can be measured, doesn't mean it's something to worry about. If plastics come out in our feces, that's exactly where they're supposed to be: rejected.
@@_FMK Most plastics are quite inert. That means they don't react with much. Our cell biology is not looking to bond with inert materials, rather bioactive ones.
@@HuFlungDung2 Our cell biology may not be looking to bond with plastics - but when plastic is jammed into the membrane matrix there are going to be issues. Saying it's "inert" doesnt mean it can't act as a blunt force instrument.
Clothing And Carpets. Americans are BREATHING IN lots of "fleece" plastic clothing fibers. Now you know better. Throw away your plastic"fleece" jackets and plastic "fleece" bedding. Now you know better.

You’re not gonna live forever. Is your water coming from a well? What are your pipes?
I buy glacier water
From CVS
ALTHOUGH in a plastic 5 gallon bottle, it doesn't stay in that long
Just use glass you'll be fine😂😊
