  • Average weekly microplastic ingestion equals a credit card's weight; exposure is ubiquitous through air, water, medications, and food—requiring multi-pronged prevention strategies
  • Sweating through sauna use enhances microplastic-associated chemical excretion; identifying exposure sources and implementing practical reduction measures are critical for neurological and reproductive health
