These tiny particles contain harmful chemicals like flame retardants, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and plasticizers such as BPA, which can disrupt hormones and cause chronic inflammation.
We share our bodies with our gut microbes. You could even say that much of what we are depends on the bacteria we carry. They can make us thin or fat, healthy or sick, happy or depressed. Science is just beginning to understand how gut microbes affect our health.
According to the video, microplastics are tiny plastic fragments that have permeated our lives. They are found in our food packaging, clothes, and even the air we breathe. These microplastics can wreak havoc on our delicate microbiome, which is a community of microorganisms that live in our bodies and are essential for our health.
Microplastics can disrupt the balance of our microbiome, leading to a variety of health problems, including weakened immunity, inflammation, and even chronic diseases.
The speaker of the video, Dr. Ron, suggests some ways to reduce our exposure to microplastics, such as using stainless steel water bottles instead of plastic ones and avoiding plastic bags at the grocery store. He also recommends eating organic meat and fish whenever possible.
In addition to reducing microplastics intake, Dr. Ron also emphasizes the importance of supporting our microbiome through a healthy diet, exercise, and good sleep. He warns against overuse of antibiotics, medications, and toxic mouthwashes, as these can all damage our gut bacteria.
