Scientists Find Microplastics in Human Brains, Health Impact Unclear

Microplastics found to obstruct brain blood vessels in troubling neuroscience study

A new study reveals that microplastics in the bloodstream can impair brain function by clogging tiny blood vessels. In mice, immune cells that engulf these particles become trapped in the brain’s capillaries, reducing blood flow and triggering neurological symptoms.
