Science has measures that we may be consuming about 5 grams of microplastics in a week -WWF A large part comes from tap & bottled water sources- (Mason etc) https://t.co/1vQ4P5TSl6 https://t.co/KCS1vjAOf5

@TakeThiamine @fentanylblwdart They are not cheap, in California, an understatement haha. They keep increasing the price in a way that looks very manipulative. 4 dollars at Whole foods in the Bay Area, for 750 mL. Link to study: https://t.co/ecAly8kVs8

11 brands of #bottledwater were tested for #MicroPlastics & 93% failed, with an average of 335 particles per liter of bottled water with ~1/2 of all particles matching a common plastic used in bottle caps. Plastic filters, valves, and caps are to blame
