Microplastics and Human Health — New Research from Private Medical and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health: Microplastics are everywhere — in food, water, air, clothing, and even medical IV therapy — and growing evidence links them to inflammation, hormone disruption, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, asthma, and other chronic conditions. These microscopic plastic fragments carry a triple burden of particles, embedded chemicals, and environmental toxins, making them a serious emerging risk to human health and longevity. Our whitepaper, Microplastics: Waking Up to the Plasticene, explains what microplastics are, how they impact the body, why elective wellness IV drips may pose hidden dangers, and what practical steps you can take to reduce exposure, from filtering drinking water and avoiding plastic food containers to choosing natural fibers in clothing and bedding.
