Recent findings reveal that bottled water contains a staggering average of 240,000 microplastic and nanoplastic particles per liter, significantly higher than previous estimates. To minimize exposure, it's advisable to avoid drinking from plastic bottles, especially those that may have been exposed to heat. Opting for reusable alternatives like stainless steel or glass can help reduce the ingestion of these harmful particles. Additionally, tap water also contains microplastics, but there are methods to filter them out effectively.
