There’s probably one lurking on your desk, kitchen top or bedside table.But people should steer clear of bottled water to reduce the level of toxic microplastics in their brain, scientists warned today. Canadian researchers said switching from bottled to filtered tap water alone could slash their intake of microplastics by 90 per cent — from roughly 90,000 to 4,000 particles each year. The report, highlighting practical strategies for reducing exposure, follows research published last month that found some human brains now contain up to 7 grams of plastic.This is roughly about as much as goes into making a small spoon.Levels were also three to…
