FIRST EVIDENCE OF MICROPLASTIC MOBILIZATION IN A HUMAN SUBJECT – A SELF-EXPERIMENT
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
Microplastics are everywhere. Studies show that microplastic burden strongly correlates with negative health outcomes. This post presents an experimental protocol that tricks cells into releasing microplastics back into the blood, where they can be transported to the liver for biliary excretion or actively removed with plasma exchange. It involves using a compound derived from broccoli as a microplastics mobilizer.
