@drgreghealth: You're swallowing plastic every day. And you probably don't even know where. I've been a functional medicine doctor for more than 25 years, and this one catches almost everyone off guard. Three of the biggest everyday sources are sitting in your kitchen. If I wanted to cut my exposure today, here's exactly what I'd do: Number one: Rethink bottled water. A 2024 study found an average of 240,000 plastic particles per liter, most of them nanoplastics small enough to slip into tissue. The swap: filtered tap, glass or steel. Number two: Check your teabags. Many are sealed with plastic, and one plastic teabag can release billions of particles into a single cup. Loose leaf, ceramic mug. Your to-go coffee cup is lined with plastic too. Number three: Stop reheating in plastic. Heat is the multiplier. Microwaving in plastic can release billions of particles into your meal. Glass and ceramic, every time. And this is why I care: we're now finding these particles in human blood. Your body can handle a lot. It just doesn't need this in the load.

What about supplement capsules . Is opening the capsules and emptying it in water just as effective?
