ЁЯФм Microplastics are no longer just an ocean pollution problemтАФthey are now inside us. Recent scientific studies have detected tiny plastic particles in human blood, lungs, placentas, and even cardiac tissue, raising serious concerns about long-term human health.
In this lesson, we break down how microplastics enter the human body, the biochemical pathways they disrupt, their potential cellular toxicity, and what scientific research reveals about mitigating exposure.

A study conducted in Mumbai, using actual 24-hour samples of food, drinking water and air, estimated approximately:
* Food: 1,036 particles/day (51.5%)
* Air: 594 particles/day(29.5%)
* Drinking water: 382 particles/day(19.0%)
