Scientists have for the first time detected microplastic particles within donated human testes and semen, averaging 12 particles/gram tissue and 0.23 particles/ml semen. Findings provide unprecedented evidence of microplastics permeating and accumulating within the male reproductive system.
There has been a major development in the growing movement to raise awareness about the dangers of contaminated cabin air. Connecticut senator Richard Blumenthal has proposed new legislation to protect pilots, flight attendants and passengers from this completely preventable public health problem.
According to a recent study’s findings, 93 percent of bottled water showed signs of microplastic contamination averaging 10.4 large (> 100 um) microplastic particles per liter of bottled water. The tests included brands like Evian, Aquafina, and Dasani.
It’s the EPA’s job to protect water quality from offshore fracking, not rubber-stamp the dumping of the wastewater from this dangerous, disgusting practice - Kristen Monsell
In the delicate world of prenatal care, ensuring the safety and well-being of both mother and child is of utmost importance. As healthcare providers seek to minimize potential risks associated with the use of petrochemical-based ultrasound gels, a natural and promising alternative has emerged: coconut oil.
Despite known negative effects of BPA and BPS in plastic, these toxic chemicals are still prevalent in many home products and food items. BPA and BPS exposure is linked with reproductive disorders, lowered cognitive function, behavioral problems in children and increased oxidative stress, among other health disorders. Reducing your exposure to these harmful chemicals is vital to lowering your risk of serious diseases and improving the health of your family

Using advanced microscopy, researchers detect over 240,000 plastic particles per liter in bottled water - mostly hazardous nanoplastics below 1 micron. This reveals far higher human exposure than presumed, warranting research on toxicity and regulation. Sweating therapies may help eliminate accrued microplastics
A seven decade old cause of mysterious public ill health will eventually be solved with solutions which exist - today
Vaseline petroleum jelly is a byproduct of petroleum refining. When it comes to wound healing, better options exist to speed recovery, prevent infection and result in a less-obvious scar
