How Plastic Gets Inside Your Body

About this video

In this short clip, Brecka explains routes by which microplastics and nanoplastics enter the body: ingestion through food, seafood, salt, packaging, and bottled water; inhalation of particles in indoor and outdoor air; and skin contact, which he says larger particles cannot easily cross but very small nanoplastics can, especially via hair follicles or damaged skin. He notes these particles can carry other absorbed contaminants into the body.

Key takeaways

• Brecka identifies ingestion, inhalation, and dermal contact as the three exposure routes for plastic particles
• Brecka claims nanoplastics under a certain size can penetrate skin, particularly through follicles or damaged tissue
• Brecka argues plastic particles can act as carriers for other contaminants
