> If I had to make a guess I would say that most people's diet/lifestyle/stressful job is about 1000X more impactful to their expected lifespan than microplastics in their diet. I like how in your first comment you try appearing a skeptic, upholder of science and yet you make unscientific guesses based on no evidence. We know very little as of yet on how humans work, what is harmful and what isn't. Just look at all the research on various medicines...that 20 years later it turns out they were only as good as placebos. Facts: 1. Microplastics appear to be everywhere now. 2. There is evidence that they are not inert molecules, passing through, instead they are chemically active. Assumption: microplastics are bad for you. Now if that causes debilitating fear to you that's a different issue, but sticking your head in the sand won't make the problem go away. Also, your utalitarian logic is flawed.
