Health-Wrecking Microplastics Hidden in Unexpected Places — Virtually EVERYWHERE
It’s my understanding that many people believe the health dangers of microplastics exposure to be over-hyped, but, in due time, the fallout will become undeniable in much the same way that doctors once recommended cigarettes only to find out many years later that they cause cancer and emphysema and other such undesirable conditions.

There I sat, a few weeks back, sipping on matcha tea steeped from a teabag from an ostensibly respectable supplier, believing myself to be doing something responsible health-wise, only to, lo and behold, learn that research suggests that teabag was likely contaminated with microplastics that demonstrably leech into human intestinal cells, into the blood supply, and into every internal organ.

Which led me down a dark rabbit hole.
Where exactly are microplastics to be found in the environment?
A few — by no means an exhaustive list — of culprits:
· Tea bags (Source: Chemosphere)
· Commercially produced beer, tea, and mineral water (Source: Analyst)
· Chewing gum (Source: American Chemical Society)
· Seafood (Source: Frontiers in Toxicology)
· The ocean itself — 24.4 trillion microplastics, approximately (Source: Microplastics and Nanoplastics)
· Table salt (Source: Environmental Science and Pollution Research)
More on the potential devastating health impacts of all of these synthetic and non-biodegradable substances coming up.

There is a reasonable suspicion that the surge in main media focus on plastics has to do with covidiana, the shots and what’s been aerially deposited. Confusion is created, and “justification”. If plastic materials are already ubiquitous, this newer proliferation can be made to seem less concerning. Further, it can discourage looking into differentiation, as to what has changed of late under covidiana – it’s all over, so why bother. If anaphylactic nut allergies relate to use of peanut oils for a time in vaxxes, ditto I think in Japan e.g. re gelatin, why not switch to the already breathed in and what’s replete in blood and ocean? Find out more about what has been found encapsulated in blood. A quick quote pulled off a quick websearch on sci lit with which there’s scant useful overlap in main media: “Synthetic polymers serve as a promising vaccine adjuvant materials because of their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and low cost.”…..Get the picture?
Wheat Grass and Spirulina are two natural products that help the body get rid of heavy metals. During our daughter's leukemia treatment Dr. Wheatgrass.com consulted with me and told us to start doing wheatgrass, which we did and the result was my daughter did not need a blood transfusion for five months. This was an incredible amount of time without a transfusion and the only thing that changed were those two items; wheatgrass and Spirulina powder. My husband and I do our green drinks every day. They make us feel good. Due to plastics, heavy metals and all sorts of other toxins we are taking into our bodies every day, these two green powders are highly nutritious as well as helping the body rid itself of the daily toxic load we take in every day.
