Microplastic pollution is everywhere. How widespread are tiny plastic fibers? They seem to be everywhere, from the deepest points under the sea to the highest mountain peaks. For example, in 2018, scientists found microplastics in the deepest point on earth, in the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n
Last year, microplastic pollution was detected in snow samples at 11 locations near the summit of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world. Could anything be worse than that? \u2013 you must be wondering. Scientists estimate that plastic waste generated worldwide is likely to triple to a staggering 155 to 265 million tons per year by 2060.<\/p>\n

Study reveals why seafood lovers should be concerned about microplastics<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n To be clear: microplastics pose a serious threat to human health. How dangerous is it for your health? Excellent question: it's a danger that scientists and researchers are still trying to determine. Although we know that ingested microplastic particles can physically damage organs and release dangerous chemicals \u2013 from hormone-disrupting bisphenol A (BPA) to pesticides \u2013 the full impact on health is not yet known to us. However, there is growing evidence to suggest that the invasion of microplastics poses a serious threat to humans, animals and the ecosystem.<\/p>\n According to the magazine Scientific American<\/em>, the tiny microfibers are known to lie deep in the lungs, where they can cause various diseases, including cancer. It has been shown that factory workers who handle nylon and polyester have proven lung irritation and reduced lung capacity. Scientists are also concerned that ingesting microplastics can lead to serious and life-threatening blood clots.<\/p>\n Moreover, a recent study, published in the journal Environment International<\/em>, showed that microplastics were detected in the placentas of unborn babies, which the researchers called "a matter of great concern" because it could harm the fetus in the long term.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Use caution to reduce the risk of exposure<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n But as a consumer, the best thing you can do is to reduce your intake of certain types of seafood, to know where your seafood comes from, and to do everything you can to reduce plastic waste. Remember, just because microplastics are almost invisible \u2013 ranging in diameter from 100 nanometers (which corresponds to one ten-thousandth of a millimeter) down to 5 millimeters \u2013 doesn't mean they aren't there.<\/p>\n Please be careful where you dispose of waste, let's all be careful. We suggest that you clean yourself at least once or twice a year.<\/p>\n 1.

As you probably know, humans consume microplastics through food, water and air. According to research published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology<\/em>, the average person eats 50,000 microplastic particles per year<\/strong> (although that number is probably much higher).Now, with what can only be described as bad news for seafood lovers<\/strong>, a surprising new study by Hull York Medical School and the University of Hull reveals that among seafood: oysters, scallops and mussels contain some of the highest levels of microplastic contamination.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/detoksikacija-organizma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/microplastic-pollutants-found-inside-human-organs-including-kidneys-liver-spleen-and-lungs-300x199.jpg\")

A UN report says that there are more than 51 trillion microplastic particles in the sea. Shellfish that feed by filtering: such as oysters, scallops, mussels and shellfish in general, are the most sensitive to micropollution. However, seafood is not the only one that contains microplastics. Bottled water, beer, honey, tea bags and sea salt also contain microplastics. How much microplastics affect us? In what quantities is it harmful or not? Do you consume more microplastics when you drink a liter of bottled water, or when you eat a dozen sharpies? At this moment, we don't know that yet, and we don't have definitive answers to these doubts.<\/p>\n
