Description
Avrina Ririe and seven co-authors review what tiny plastic bits may do to human health. Their review, from twenty twenty-five, covers microplastics, pieces no bigger than five millimeters. People take them in most by eating and breathing. Bits have been found in blood, the gut, and the placenta.
The team keeps only human studies for health outcomes. Animal and lab work serve as background on how harm might occur. Proposed paths include cell stress, inflammation, hormone upset, and gut microbe shifts. Direct proof that these paths cause illness in people is still thin. The review maps what is known and where firm evidence is lacking.
