Scientists are astonished to find particles in human blood after conducting extensive research, and we, as humans, are the ones who are to blame for this extremely unsettling realisation.
The microscopic particles, which were found in the blood of around eighty percent of the persons who took part in the study, were found to originate from the air, as well as from the highest point of Mount Everest to the deepest oceans. This was determined by the investigators.
Considered in light of the fact that the globe in which we live is heavily contaminated and replete with garbage, the fact that both humans and animals eat minute particles of plastic through their food and drink is not a novel phenomenon. Faeces from humans and infants have been found to contain these particles in the past.

According to the findings of the study, there were components of PET plastic, which is commonly found in beverage containers, in fifty percent of the blood samples that were collected from twenty-two healthy persons, seventeen of whom tested positive for the presence of plastic. There was a quarter of the blood samples that contained polyethylene, which is the most commonly produced plastic, and one third of them had polystyrene, which is used for packaging food and other things.
“Our study is the first indication that we have polymer particles in our blood – it’s a breakthrough result,” said Professor Dick Vethaak, an ecotoxicologist at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in the Netherlands. He provided an insight into the findings of the research and explained about the findings. However, it is necessary for us to broaden the scope of the research and expand the sample sizes, the number of polymers evaluated, and other relevant factors.

The fact remains, however, that this is but the beginning; additional study needs to be carried out.
In an interview with the Guardian, Vethaak stated, “It is certainly reasonable to be concerned by this.” It is true that the particles are present and spread out across the body.

In addition, he stated that it is common knowledge that infants and young children are more susceptible to the effects of chemical and particle exposure. “It gives me a great deal of worries.”
The subjects’ blood samples contained varying amounts of plastic particles according to the results of the study. In light of the fact that this is a groundbreaking study, we have not yet acquired additional knowledge and investigated the implications that this has for human beings in the long run.
“The most important question is, what exactly is going on inside of our bodies?” According to Vethaak. Are the particles capable of being kept within the body? Are they carried to certain organs, such as passing through the blood-brain barrier so that they can achieve their destination? What about the possibility that these levels are high enough to cause disease? We have an immediate need to secure funding for additional study so that we can find out.

In addition, Professor Vethaak composed a review paper in which he discussed the possibility of developing cancer. Especially in view of the exponential increase in the production of plastic, there is an immediate need for further in-depth research on the ways in which micro- and nano-plastics influence the structures and functions of the human body, as well as whether or not they can have the ability to change cells and induce carcinogenesis. With each passing day, the situation is becoming an increasingly pressing one.
This should serve as a wake-up call for humanity to take quick action about air pollution and effective garbage disposal. This is a serious matter that should be taken very seriously. What we are doing is causing the planet Earth to suffocate, and this situation needs to be rectified as quickly as possible!
