I know a lot of people say they don’t but based on what iv seen we consume LOTS of micro plastics iv even seen a study that says we eat a credit cards worth a week if that’s true then there must be some way for our body to remove them since otherwise we’d have too much plastic in us I also heard that there is plastic in our livers and testicles . How does our body remove all of that and how much would donating blood help?

This got me curious so I tried to do some googling and found this https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666911022000247#:~:text=Abstract,et%20al.%2C%202021) first thing that popped up and to summarize, the eating a credit cards worth of plastic every week is hugely exaggerated and they estimate we eat about a credit cards worth of plastic every 23,000 years. This makes sense to me because if it’s true that we can’t get rid of microplastics in our bodies and we eat a credit cards worth of plastic every week then we would all be dead by now.
