Preparing food using a plastic chopping board releases microplastics directly into your food. Ingested microplastics accumulate in the body, causing infertility, inflammation and long-term health damage. If you value your health, stop consuming microplastics!

Bryan Johnson reveals how he reduced microplastics in his body by 87% “Cups you use for hot coffee leach microplastics. The heat causes the leaching of microplastics, so when you're drinking that coffee you are consuming microplastics. So we removed that and a bunch of other stuff like plastic cups, cutting boards, and other plastics from the house, and we dropped my microplastics burden in my body by 87%” “Dry sauna was potentially the cause of reducing microplastics in the body overall”

Still drinking water from plastic bottles? A recent study found that microplastics exposure increases the risks of having a heart attack. (PMID: 38446676) Drinking water from plastic bottles is the biggest source of microplastics. Get plastic out of your life and your health will improve significantly!

Paper coffee cups are actually lined with plastic. When hot coffee hits that lining, it releases microplastics directly into your drink, your bloodstream, and potentially your brain.

Microplastics accumulate in your brain 10 to 20 times more than in other organs Even worse, post-mortem studies reveal Alzheimer’s patients have 10x higher levels of microplastics in their brains than people without the disease Every breath you take brings in microplastics shed from clothing fibers, tires, and everyday plastic products, penetrating your brain via your nasal passages Perhaps your best defense? Using a simple HEPA air filter at home

Clavicular told chat to SHUT UP about microplastics after microwaving his food inside a PLASTIC CONTAINER saying he is on TESTOSTERONE so he does not care 😳👀 "No one gives a F about microplastics leaching into my food."

Q: "Could you expand on the agency's efforts to further address microplastics and PFAS contaminants in our food and water?" Kennedy: We're putting $140 million into the STOMP program. The average American now has a teaspoon of microplastics in his brain.

"Most people think polyester is just fabric. It's not. It's literally plastic." "And here's the problem. When you wear it, those plastic fibers shed. Microplastics and nanoplastics break off and absorb into the skin." "They carry hormone-disrupting chemicals. Your body absorbs them. They accumulate in your organs, your bloodstream, and your brain."

Microplastics are infiltrating our bodies - they are embedded in arterial walls and raise the risk of heart attack or stroke by 4.5x within three years. Microplastics trigger chronic inflammation and carry harmful chemicals like BPA and phthalates, which impair endothelial function and promote atherosclerosis. Emerging research suggests microplastics may also interfere with mitochondrial function and disrupt lipid metabolism, compounding cardiovascular risks. While we can’t eliminate exposure entirely, there are meaningful ways to reduce it: • Use high-quality water filters (like reverse osmosis systems). • Reduce use of plastic bottles, food packaging, and single-use plastics. • Don’t heat food in plastic containers or use to-go coffee cups lined with plastic. • Consider alternatives like glass, stainless steel, or ceramic for food and beverage storage. Small changes add up. For more on how microplastics insidiously affect our health, check out episode 95 of the FMF podcast. Available wherever you consume podcasts.

Microplastics have been found in 100% of sperm samples tested. Studies show microplastics are linked to abnormal sperm shape and impaired motility, which means sperm can’t move as efficiently—bad news for fertility. 31% of the microplastics found in sperm come from polystyrene, a plastic commonly used in food packaging. Even worse, polyvinyl chloride (PVC)—used in water pipes—breaks down and leaches microplastics into tap water, a major source of exposure. Microplastics often contain BPA, a known endocrine disruptor that mimics estrogen. Research shows that men with higher BPA levels have significantly lower testosterone and reduced sperm quality. Reducing exposure is key: avoid heating plastics, use stainless steel or glass for drinking, and filter tap water with systems like reverse osmosis that remove microplastics. The goal is not panic—but informed action. To learn more about how microplastics impact reproductive health, the brain, the cardiovascular system, and hormones, check out episode 95 of the FoundMyFitness Podcast. Show notes:

They call it cancer. I call it microplastic toxicity. 🦠 They tell you the cause of cancer is "unknown." Meanwhile, they wrap our food, water, and lives in plastic. 💳 From your brain to your gut, microplastics are clogging your system and preventing true healing. 🚫 This is your sign to start detoxing from microplastics. My recommended ingredient is liquid micronized zeolite. It’s a binder, and acts like a magnet for heavy metals, toxins and microplastics. But be sure to take it only on an EMPTY stomach!

Microplastics are everywhere - in water, food and our bodies. Why banning plastic isn't enough and how science proposes to neutralize this threat. Are you ready to completely remove plastic from your life right now or you think that's impossible?

Big News ‼️ The Trump administration says it will decrease the levels of micro plastics in medicines and drinking water New research shows microplastics in the brain could be causing dementia A team “looked at brain tissue from cadavers and found that the average brain could contain up to 7 grams of microplastics. That's roughly equal to the weight of a plastic spoon, just in the brain” “Research has shown nanoplastics can cross the blood-brain barrier, and one of the startling discoveries from this study showed that in the brains of those who had dementia, there were significantly higher levels of microplastics” “In those dementia cases, there was 5-8x more plastic in those individuals” “In a separate study, researchers found microplastics in placentas, suggesting pre-birth exposure coming from the mother's bloodstream through the placenta in utero. And they found that babies born preterm who face higher rates of complications had a higher concentration of microplastics in their blood” I found 10 common things you can get microplastics from in America Bottled water Tap water Seafood Table salt Beer Tea bags Synthetic clothing Cosmetics Air dust Food packaging Microplastics pollute water, fish eat the feeders who eat the microplastics and that’s why seafood is a source of microplastics We have to stop the plastic pollution
