Micro plastics get in our bodies through food and water and the very air we breathe. It's the prevalence of plastic pollution in our environment that likely begins it's entry to the food chain. Food whether vegetables or from animals already have it in them as it's already in the soil, fertilizers and water. Some of the particulate matter in the air is micro plastic pollution. And that is a entry point into your system as you breathe it. Your own tap water that you fill your bidon with likely already has micro plastics in it.

So it's not something you are going to reduce in your body just by choosing not to use your plastic bidon or drink from a plastic bottle.

This isn't new stuff either. Where were you people when they talked about this stuff 20 years ago?
