It feels like every few weeks i see an article about microplastics being in the human body. As i understand plastics are inert so why do we expect them to be any more harmful than normal dust?
In: Biology
Microplastics disrupt the endocrine system and can activate or block hormones. They have been found in human and dog’s testicles and look to be decreasing sperm count.
They are found in our blood, heart, lungs..pretty much everywhere in our body. Being that they’re literally in our blood they are now linking them to cardiovascular disease and strokes. We’re fucked.
