Microplastics in Food: Health Risks
Summary
Researchers reviewed the emerging evidence of microplastic contamination across common food items — including seafood, table salt, and drinking water — and assessed the largely unknown implications for human health, highlighting the critical knowledge gap between confirmed dietary exposure and understanding of downstream biological effects.
The presence and ecological risks of microplastics (MPs) are increasingly reported, whereas the impacts of MPs on human health remain largely unknown. Recent studies have confirmed the MP contamination in food items, including seafood, table salt, drinking water,...
