For years I have stated ‘ WE live in a toxic environment’ Whether its from metals, processed foods, antibiotic injected foods, or plastics — it is all toxic to our bodies.
A study last year led by Antonio Ragusa studied microplastics. Plastics were found in placentas from normal vaginal deliveries. Microplastics ( MP) are used commercially and have been found in marine life and in intestines,. This study found that microplastics found in placentas can cause local toxicity by inducing immune response. This is a critical study and should not be taken lightly. We already expose infants to microplastics by using plastic bottles rather than glass bottles when feeding early in life.
In 2021 we found that some bacteria can become resistant to certain antibiotics when exposed to microplastics. The resistance was found to be 30 times more resistant when exposed to these microplastics.
Microplastic pollution is a real threat and is a growing topic. I would suggest to view scholar.google for more information. I always test environmental toxins in an individual with chronic disease . I use Great Plains laboratory for testing
Until tomorrow…
