Chewing gum releases thousands of bits of microplastics in your mouth
While chewing gum may seem like a harmless habit, recent studies have revealed a concerning reality: microplastics are a part of our daily lives, even in the things we put in our mouths. As we transition further into a world dominated by synthetic materials, it's crucial to stay informed about the potential risks of microplastics. As Mohanty and his team continue to explore this issue, we must remain cautious and mindful of the products we consume, taking steps to reduce our exposure to plastics and advocating for more sustainable alternatives.
