Is there any way of removing plastic from the body?

reply

Not really. Very slowly through diffusion if you eat and drink low microplastic stuff at best.

how does it end up in our brain if we eat or drink it?

Is this fear tactic to get us to plug our brains in

reply

It's in everything we eat and drink. It diffuses into the liquid in our digestion system, diffuses into the blood and from there crosses the blood-brain-barrier slowly but steadily

So stopping the plastic coming in then hopefully the body will push out what’s in there

These are dangerous signs for humans. The plastic must be banned right now.

plastics are literally everywhere and in every thing. there would need to be a significant transition period where new replacement materials can be discovered if we don't want to go back 150 years in technology.

Nah, we need less red tape. I'm sure the free market will solve this .. /s

Why more in the brain and less on liver and kidney? I thought it would be the other way around

I was wondering the same thing

The plastics will kill us all
