This is not an isolated finding.
A comprehensive research conducted by the charity Ocean Conservancy revealed that about 88% of protein samples, including meat and fish, included microplastic particles. According to the study, the maximum U.S. adult exposure to these proteins is approximately 3.8 million microplastics per year.
Microplastics, defined as particles smaller than five millimeters, come from a variety of sources, including garment fibers, packaging materials, and other plastic items. These microscopic particles have spread throughout our surroundings, making their way into the food chain and eventually onto our plates.
The implications for human health are currently being investigated. While the long-term impacts are unknown, the presence of microplastics in our diet raises worries about possible health problems. As customers, we must stay aware and support programs to reduce plastic pollution to protect both the environment and human health.
