Pharmacy, a new study found that a
0:38
leader water from plastic water bottles contained
0:40
in this is Gary. Two hundred and
0:43
forty thousand detectable plastic fragments from as
0:45
arrogant a liter of water from a
0:47
posse water bottle contains two hundred and
0:49
forty thousand detectable plastic fragments. And that's
0:52
about ten to one hundred times more
0:54
than previous estimates. And about ninety percent
0:56
of these fragments were nano plastics, not

4:17
Welcome that are Just Pharmacy and
4:19
another edition of Help Bites Hi
4:21
I'm Doctor Mark. I'm an entree
4:23
special episode we discuss a topic
4:25
is quite literally everywhere but mostly
4:27
invisible micro plastics. Now you might
4:29
have seen the headlines about the
4:32
threat lurking in our oceans, our
4:34
soil or air. and yes, even
4:36
in our own bodies. According to
4:38
the new estimates, we just have
4:40
to a whole credit cards worth
4:42
a plastic every week without realizing.
4:44
it's pretty wild. micro plastics are.
4:46
Also linked to hormonal imbalances to
4:48
weight gain cancer. New studies also
4:50
found Michael plastic chunks in the
4:52
plaque of individuals with coronary artery
4:54
disease. The Us and now we
4:56
all know plastic is here to
4:58
stay. But the burning question remains:
5:00
what can we do about it?
5:02
How can we reduce our exposure?
5:04
And how can we detoxify our
5:06
bodies from his insidious particles? That's
5:08
exactly what we're gonna talk about
5:10
today and will start with what
5:13
exactly are micro plastic? So I
5:15
your plastics are tiny little. Plastic Particles
5:17
list and five millimeters and size. Now
5:19
they can be as small as a
5:21
grain of sand or even smaller invisibles.
5:23
The naked eye microfossils can be broken
5:26
down even further into minuscule size plastic
5:28
particles called nano particles Know none of
5:30
us, it's or less than a hundred
5:32
ninety meters and size. And for reference
5:34
anatomy, there is a billionth of a
5:37
meters on times very big and are
5:39
much much more difficult to detect vs.
5:41
micro past. So why are these so
5:43
bad? There pervasive in our environment they're
5:45
ubiquitous in have become. A significant him
5:48
are more concerned to their wise bread
5:50
pervasiveness in the water in our soil
5:52
and or air and it can take
5:54
anywhere between twenty and five hundred. He
5:56
hears her plastic waste to decompose. even
5:58
then it never really. While he disappears,
6:01
it just gets smaller and smaller and
6:03
smaller Examples of how micro plastic shopping
6:05
are: Marmot are everywhere now because of
6:07
their small size microprocessor infiltrate ecosystems from
6:09
the bottom of the ocean to the
6:12
tops of glaciers. I mean the Great
6:14
Pacific Garbage Patch is a micro plastic
6:16
island the size of Texas is spans
6:18
from the west coast of North America
6:20
to Japan. Seventy percent of that debris
6:23
sinks to the by the ocean. Forty
6:25
million tons of micro plastics exist on
6:27
the ocean floor and microfossils have been
6:29
identified. In the core of ice caps
6:32
and Iceland righteous came back from pretty
6:34
frightening says is very remote matter plastics
6:36
are easy adjusted by wildlife and then
6:38
they bout you might have the food
6:40
chain which that course negative impacts wildlife
6:42
and human health is where the top
6:44
of food chain tilts. What impacts. Do.
6:46
Make A have on human Health while
6:48
and the Cdc National Airport I human
6:50
exposure to environmental chemicals. Scientists analyzed urine
6:53
samples from two thousand and five hundred
6:55
and seventeen individuals a six and above
6:57
for Bp A and they found almost
6:59
every participant contain Bps as bisbee noise.
7:01
Now exposure from the time or in
7:03
utero is also going on. It's not
7:05
just what we get warmer health I
7:08
have outside the womb, It's inside the
7:10
womb. A recent study published in Touch
7:12
Logical Sciences analyze sixty two percent of
7:14
samples and micro classics are present in.
7:16
All of them with polyethylene what tossing
7:18
days and modern models and suits in
7:20
his actually made of these account for
7:22
most of the nano and my for
7:24
plastics Also these microprocessor fact are immune
7:27
system the drive information now when they're
7:29
inhale they're ingesting and our food they
7:31
awesome will cause or causes bios as
7:33
circumstances in the gut flora though cause
7:35
Aussie stress and information which just drive
7:37
further information and chronic systemic inflammation is
7:39
a social every known chronic disease i
7:41
can you stay in mice and found
7:43
that Micro Five Six have been shown
7:45
to penetrate the. Got barrier causing a
7:47
leaky gut was then creates a more
7:50
issues right? We get more information and
7:52
the food particles met your parcels and
7:54
migrant into the bloodstream and me information
7:56
near affects every organ such as are
7:59
liver, kidneys, In and they also doctor
8:01
metabolic health causing insulin resistance and worse
8:03
So this the screws up your whole
8:05
liver got access and increases the risk
8:08
of pre diabetes and diabetes and in
8:10
some assistance of the affect every aspect
8:12
of our biology. They also described hormones.
8:14
bees are also called endocrine disruptors I'm
8:16
a plastic contain chemical additives like solid
8:19
surface venal A or B P A
8:21
and from laid flame retardants which are
8:23
just pure the mainland sourcing A B
8:25
P A Bta is structurally similar estrogen
8:27
and as he mimics estrogen the body.
8:30
Which is why soon as easy know
8:32
where for nests and it binds to
8:34
the estrogen receptors. a minute alters hormone
8:36
signaling, was nodding a bank. Bp A
8:38
causes epigenetic changes so it really changes
8:40
the way your genes are expressed by
8:42
something called the in in isolation and
8:45
then that causes all kinds of other
8:47
issues reproductive issues, cancer, metabolic issues, weight
8:49
gain. It also affects reproductive system function.
8:51
So when you have exposure, these micro
8:53
pa and chemicals and your ability to
8:55
reproduce and be pay for example impacts
8:57
the female reproductive system and fertility by.
9:00
Sexy maturation of eggs in the beginning
9:02
and your menstrual cycle and be pay
9:04
is also associated with P C O
9:06
S or polycystic ovarian syndrome and endometriosis
9:08
which by the way is it out
9:11
amuses be paid as inspect women. It
9:13
also affects man in and screws up
9:15
for managing as as meaning the making
9:17
endosperm. It's also so she would lower
9:20
testosterone levels and reduced sperm count, rid
9:22
of sperm motility and increase sperm dna
9:24
damage Not what you want to have
9:26
it, you're having a baby Me: call
9:29
these changes epigenetic changes. Derek their imprinting
9:31
on your at the genome which then
9:33
has trans generational effect. So what happens
9:35
to a say the grandparents and happened
9:37
to the grandchild because of the insult
9:39
that happened to the grandparent? This affects
9:41
the fertility of progeny of many future
9:43
generations which is very scary and were
9:45
single kinda weird stuff and animals even
9:47
in humans. General abnormalities influence on brain
9:49
six development as V P also has
9:51
to that have sex for men read
9:53
their anti and jet engines are male
9:56
hormones responsible for the means of male
9:58
sex trade. Psyche no hair and. The
10:00
and muscle mass and on the things
10:02
we like one hand, but Bp A
10:04
affects the brain sixty vomit in fetuses
10:06
and alters the expression so little changes
10:09
that reproductive system of the developing fetus
10:11
which is really terrifying to make A
10:13
We are seeing a lot of linkages
10:15
to these environmental chemical some classics with
10:17
obesity. They're called obese A Djinns carcinogens
10:20
but obesity hands and human studies have
10:22
shown a positive correlation between urinary levels
10:24
of Bph and your Bmr your weight
10:26
According to the enhanced A to this
10:29
is the National Health. And nutrition examination
10:31
survey data says tens of thousands marathons over
10:33
decades and decades those are the highest levels
10:35
of Bp exposure were more likely to be
10:37
obese. Now why could be just because the
10:39
people who are studying to had a high
10:42
Bp also didn't pay much attention to how
10:44
for other reasons has called the unhealthy user
10:46
bias or maybe mail is because they're eating
10:48
more processed food and eating thinking from or
10:50
plastic stuff. Maybe that there's a reason there
10:53
but the mechanism is that it has estrogenic
10:55
activity and it promotes that cell division and
10:57
accumulation. So basically Bph causes and some resistance.
10:59
it. Causes more fatso accumulation, inhibits to
11:01
release of important hormonal adiponectin which is
11:03
an anti inflammatory insulin sensitizing hormone and
11:05
it actually ourselves regulate blood sugar burning
11:07
fat and is secreted by fat cells
11:09
that we have high most of these
11:11
toxins you don't get out for nekton
11:13
and you'll get all the benefits Bps
11:15
also linked to abnormal cholesterol and that
11:17
despite also such as soon as and
11:19
the got four and a taxi me
11:22
I meaning tosses getting and body from
11:24
the got as that that are caused
11:26
by damaged outlining the ostling to Isis
11:28
stress to up in from existence high.
11:30
Levels of fasting insulin and also inhibits
11:32
that break down and and leads to
11:34
weight gain. So he's a really nasty
11:36
and they're everywhere and it's allowed in
11:38
our food supply. When else does Bp
11:40
I do I'll watch Sesame Bride or
11:42
any this in your system and is
11:44
is by were everywhere. You really pay
11:46
attention to cans and packaging and credit
11:48
card receipts and eight him receipts all
11:50
these have Bpm them sees one of
11:52
the on such as numerous has received.
11:54
Also Bp a causes cancer it binds
11:56
to eschew receptor is out ones with
11:58
how alpha and beta men activates the
12:00
same singly pass ways in these estrogen
12:03
sensitive issues that you would from s
12:05
gents and that leads to breast cancer,
12:07
ovarian cancer, uterus scheme effect prostate health
12:09
This increases all kinds of bad things
12:11
like cell proliferation, cancer cell formation, cancerous
12:13
tumors and depending on the genetics and
12:15
your environment and level exposure of your
12:17
risk is gonna be higher Now there
12:19
are other mechanisms that does that that
12:21
be taken cause damage within those include
12:23
more Casado toxicity which is means is
12:25
a poison so it's just for directly
12:27
poisons the south A precise his stress
12:29
and. It damages our dna was has
12:31
tumor effects of this just many many
12:34
pathways that this is betsy of what
12:36
else if there wasn't some They also
12:38
there's another that right heart disease and
12:40
long term addled exposure to be Che
12:42
his associate with all sorts of things
12:44
like heart disease and hypertension, atherosclerosis packed
12:46
development heart attacks as he saw that
12:48
the data is pretty scary about this
12:50
and the research shows. For example, tenure
12:52
study in the Uk done by Meltzer
12:55
and others found that higher Bp exposure
12:57
correlates with an increased incidence of coronary
12:59
heart disease more. Heart attacks. Another observation.
13:01
Stadiums observational. those pretty scary ass in
13:03
England Journal of Medicine at looked at
13:05
the presence of and micro and then
13:07
of plastics in the plaque of three
13:09
hundred and four asymptomatic people who underwent
13:11
carotid and directness cleaning out the blockages
13:13
and then the arteries in the neck
13:15
and neck now permit strokes And they
13:17
looked at the micro plastics in that
13:19
plaque and they'd tried to track it.
13:21
How are correlated with heart Attacks? Strokes
13:23
and Er das are more causes. About
13:25
thirty four months later and what was
13:27
really frightening was that polyethylene. One of
13:29
these micro. Plastics was detected in the
13:31
crowd Rt plaque of fifty eight point
13:33
four percent of patients and Tv see
13:35
from Pvc pipes pie vinyl chloride from
13:37
vinyl flooring, credit cards, medical devices furniture
13:39
was detected in twelve percent of patients
13:41
know when they looked through Adam a
13:43
special kind of microscope call them electron
13:45
microscope but it's very small small things
13:47
as showed visible jagged edge, micro and
13:49
nana posse particles in the plaque significantly
13:51
increasing the risk for for a primer
13:53
and point events meaning heart attacks strokes
13:55
by four hundred and fifty three percent.
13:57
Meaning if if you had higher amounts
13:59
of micro and then deposits in your
14:01
crowd artery you had a much much
14:04
higher risk of having a major cardiac
14:06
event or stroke than those he didn't
14:08
have this micro plastics in their arteries
14:10
Now other studies have shown that people
14:12
with high blood pressure and no heart
14:14
rate their ability to nab higher total
14:16
as you're in a Bp A So
14:18
that's concerning so cause high blood pressure
14:20
and part of a blaze of rain
14:22
for measure be overall cardiovascular fitness sort
14:24
of the top sources of micro plastic
14:26
exposure you want to know Now it's
14:28
cause always bad things while out your
14:30
processed. Food packaging just don't eat crap even
14:32
if the I grabbed is not good for
14:34
you is no reason to eat it is
14:36
not actually food he should never never put
14:38
that postulates iron and I've done many a
14:40
podcasting the like us on what else are
14:42
processed foods arm what they do but it's
14:44
is pretty frightened so where you find allowed
14:47
now also these make a posse so cancer
14:49
Bp a line cans, coffee consulates who drinks
14:51
and I was copies team bring your own
14:53
top posts me on kit salt even south
14:55
has at a table salt which is the
14:57
altar process to us as a lot but
14:59
to as. That has microprocessor teabags. the
15:01
how to measure find coffee filters but they're
15:03
not. Tie propylene is a type of plastic
15:06
is used to seal teabags is kept some
15:08
kind of together in hot water. But my
15:10
guide cause their posse can leach in your
15:12
t A single classic see bag at the
15:15
bring temperature can release. Get this or levin
15:17
point Six billion maker classics and three point
15:19
one billion nano classics as scary as Trump's
15:21
environmental science and technology. Eternal drink coffee machines
15:24
at a spicy to being and applies to
15:26
will get things they do. I mean I
15:28
don't see what should be seen. That classic
15:30
Water bottles, soda bottles, any beverage containers which
15:32
is B P line, plastic containers, cops, bags
15:34
shrink wrapped up or were off and cutting
15:37
boards yet to be really careful I just
15:39
try use natural products for so here price.
15:41
also another big source of these. My composite
15:43
face wash has his microbial exponents tallied some
15:45
lotion screams toothpaste you skin deep Wishes of
15:47
database from the Memo working group the kids
15:49
who died on what to eat I use
15:51
and eat your body I would to clean
15:54
your house had to doesn't have all these
15:56
crappy things. Hits home and watch out for
15:58
you make up. As I said. Skincare
16:00
products are full of these micro plastics what
16:02
am I? your clothes were close also an
16:04
issue. Polyester and synthetic fibers also are a
16:07
big issue because when you watch them as
16:09
make a pisces drain it for water supply
16:11
in front of my now has air airplanes
16:13
companies a sea of in in Europe com
16:16
archer like and has.the micro classic shelter and
16:18
is open source it all manufacturers of appliances
16:20
and of they're using him but it in
16:22
asia nor my kids with toys plastic toys
16:25
away especially those made from polyethylene which can
16:27
lead to direct exposure to these chemicals when
16:29
they're tutor. Sucked and my kids and kids
16:31
dick everything in their mouth. so I use
16:34

certain supplements can be very helpful. took you

ten has been studied by research. at
26:00
Harvard and it shows that it reduces
26:02
free radicals caused by BPA in worms,
26:04
which is I guess good. Chlorella
26:06
also can help support detoxification. Probiotics
26:08
also help fully bind to BPA.
26:11
Phthalates, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons like lactobacillus,
26:13
bifidobacterium, saccharomyces bilearti all help your
26:15
gut health, help improve liver function,
26:17
prevent all kinds of stuff from
26:19
going wrong in your body. They
26:21
have great effects on your endocrine
26:23
system. Also you can take other
26:25
supplements like N-acetyl cysteine. I take
26:27
that every day to boost glutathione.
26:30
I also take lipoic acid, which is an
26:32
antioxidant. It helps boost glutathione and you can
26:34
take some fiber supplements like psyllium or just
26:37
take flax seeds or even chia seeds every
26:39
day. All right, so that was a lot,
26:41
right? That was a lot. BPA, microplastics, nanoplastics,
26:43
they're everywhere. The best we can do is
26:45
to reduce our exposure. We can stop using
26:47
this stuff in the environment and industrial production,
26:49
which is probably not going to have any
26:51
time soon, but we should protect ourselves in
26:53
all the ways we talked about and we
26:55
should help our bodies to detoxify. We know
26:57
actually how to upregulate that through food, through
26:59
fiber, through even exercise, sweating, the right supplements, all
27:02
of that can help us detoxify. We'll put links
27:04
to all this in the show notes. Don't
27:06
worry. See if you remember everything. Even though
27:08
our world is riddled with plastics, it doesn't
27:11
mean we have to subject ourselves to their
27:13
harm. There are many things we can do
27:15
to protect our health and the health of
27:17
future generations by basically reducing our exposures and
27:20
getting rid of plastics in our bodies. In
27:22
the meantime, you can do your best to
27:24
detox your home from the plastics, your skincare
27:26
products and replace them with plastic-free alternatives and
27:29
just basically get rid of that stuff from your life.
27:32
Don't fret. We can actually
27:34
detoxify. We can get ourselves to a healthier
27:36
place. We can reduce our exposures. It's one
27:38
of the fundamental principles of functional medicine, which
27:40
is how do we understand the role of
27:42
toxins in our health and how do we
27:44
help our bodies detoxify? I hope you learned
27:46
a lot from today's health bite and we'll
27:48
see you next time. Thanks for listening today.
