Microplastics have been found just about everywhere scientists have looked. Now scientists are trying to determine their effects on your health go.nature.com/4hQm2AC

Your brain is full of microplastics: are they harming you?

Nature - Plastics have infiltrated every recess of the planet, including your lungs, kidneys and other sensitive organs. Scientists are scrambling to understand their effects on health.
