Nearly all bottled water found to contain microplastics… you are drinking “plastic stew” that disrupts human hormones
Plastic is all around us, in everything from the toys our children play with to the cosmetics we use and the packaging of the foods we eat. And now experts are expressing concerns that all this plastic might mean that microplastics – tiny bits of plastic small enough to be ingested by humans – could be leeching into our bottled water.
The research team examined 259 bottles of water from 11 different brands purchased at 19 locations in nine different countries. If their findings are confirmed after peer review we will have solid proof that we are dealing with a truly international problem.
Governments have not defined “safe” levels of plastic in drinking water, but as Bruce Gordon, coordinator of the WHO’s global work on water and sanitation, told the BBC, the very composition of plastic means that it contains toxins and harmful constituents. Plus, we don’t know what ingesting plastic would physically do to the human body.
As reported by Healthline, some of those toxic “ingredients” in plastic include endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). These chemicals are found in many types of plastic and can seriously disrupt hormonal balance.
“So many of our plastic products that come in contact with food and beverages are made with endocrine-disrupting chemicals that leech into the environment and end up in our bodies in measurable quantities,” Nancy Wayne, a professor of physiology and reproductive endocrinologist at the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of Californiain Los Angeles, told Healthline.
“Bisphenol A or BPA is detected in over 90 percent of urine samples from thousands of humans tested. That means that it is in high enough amounts in blood that it spills into our urine prior to being fully metabolized. Animal studies show that low amounts of BPA, below that which the FDA says is safe, leads to a host of abnormalities.
“Higher level of exposure to BPA in humans is associated with a host of health problems, including higher body fat in children, increased risk of miscarriages and premature birth, and increased incidence of prostate cancer,” she added. “And that’s just one of many chemicals. Add in all the other endocrine-disrupting chemicals and toxins we are exposed to, and we have a big problem that is impacting everyone, no matter who you are, where you live, or what your socioeconomic status is.”
Perhaps this explains why studies have found that close to 90 percent of teens have traces of these chemicals in their bodies. It is hardly surprising that so many young people are now totally confused about their gender, when you consider that their bodies are full of gender-altering, hormone-disrupting chemicals.
And now there are real concerns about plastic in our drinking water. If things continue as they are, our entire food and drinking supply might end up contaminated by plastic in one way or another.

Heavy metal poisoning
Heavy metal poisoning is much more common than most people realize, and if you’re thinking that it doesn’t apply to you because you haven’t been exposed to any, think again. If you’ve eaten fish regularly, had amalgam fillings, received vaccinations, drank contaminated water, or done industrial or agricultural work or pharmaceutical manufacturing, there’s a good chance that you have a fair amount of toxic metals in your system..
We are here to help and to educate!
