Potted water is the largest and most common source of microplast in the brain. People should completely avoid packaged water to reduce the amount of toxic microplastings in the brain. Canadian scientists have said that the transition from bottled water to a filtered tap could reduce microplast intake by up to 90 %.
This report, which represents practical strategies to reduce microplast intake, follows the research published last month. The authors found out that The human brain can now contain up to 7 grams of plastic – which is approximately the same amount used to make a small spoon. In persons diagnosed with dementia, microplast levels were three to five times higherfound American scientists.
“Only packaged water can supply people with almost as many microplastics per year as all other sources together. The transition to tap water could reduce this exposure by almost 90 percent, which is one of the easiest ways to limit microplastic intake, ”said Dr. Brandon Luu of the University of Toronto. The report was published by the Brain Medicine magazine.
“Heating of food in plastic packaging – especially in the microwave – can release a large number of microplastics and nanoplasts. Avoid plastic containers and use glass or stainless steel is a small but significant step towards limiting the exposure, ” added Professor Luu.
