Microplastics and Nanoplastics

  • Plastics enter and spread throughout your body, particles enter through your nose and mouth and then move into your brain, lungs and bloodstream.
  • The fetus is surrounded by plastic particles and there is concern that nanoplastics cross the placenta and potentially affect not only yourself, your baby but their children.
  • Fish digest the plastics in the ever increasing global contaminated seas and this affect the human food chain and this has a very serious negative health impact on all of us.
  • Please review the rest of this article on what we are saying about micro and nano plastics and how they pose serious health risks for you.
  • We are here to help and assist in positive ways in order to avoid as many of these issues as possible.

Within the next 10 years the global manufacturing of plastics will increase by 50%. By the time you reach the age of 40, you will have consumed 12kg of plastics. Microplastics have been detected in lungs, blood, heart, and the brain, sadly for pregnant women, microplastics are found in the placenta. The biggest source of Microplastics comes from the water you drink. Bottled water has an emormous amount of microscopic plastic particles in it. Tap water also contains plastics and PFAS. Like many issues we highlight, we have the potential answers to resolve these issues. Purchase one of water tests and we will check the quality and safety of your tap water and then if needed purchase one our countertop RO machines. (water test cost is deducted if you purchase one of our RO machines).
