The Potential Harm of Bottled Water
Recent studies reveal that bottled water may contain nanoplastics. These microscopic plastic particles can enter the water through packaging and bottling processes, posing potential health risks such as oxidative stress, inflammation, and immune dysfunction. Most research focuses on animals and cells, with limited human data. To reduce risks, use reusable bottles and high-quality water filters, and stay informed on the latest research. The presence of nanoplastics underscores the need to reduce plastic use and find sustainable alternatives.
