Microplastics in the Digestive System
Inflammation: Studies show microplastics cause gut inflammation & oxidative stress.
Cancer Risk: Chronic exposure is linked to epithelial damage & colon cancer.
Systemic Effects: Microplastics can cross the gut barrier, reaching vital organs. #GutHealth

3/ Where Do Microplastics Come From?
Key sources include:
1. Tire wear (roads).
2. Synthetic textile fibers (laundry).
3. Degraded plastics (bottles, packaging).
They’re even in the air we breathe and the water we drink, with humans ingesting ~5 grams weekly (a credit card!).
