ISLAMABAD, May 26 (APP):Experts have discovered that the presence of very small plastic
particles in human blood can increase the risk of heart diseases.
According to research published in the medical journal Environmental International, these small plastic
particles found in human blood could indeed be dangerous for human health.
In the research, blood sample
s were taken from 20 recovered individuals, 18 of whom had very small plastic and chemical
particles in their blood.
The
particles discovered were transparent and barely smaller than a micrometer (one thousand micrometers make up one millimeter).
The research revealed that these tiny plastic
particles travel to different parts of the body, where they can become lodged.
Experts caution that plastic
particles can cause blood clots, increase inflammation, weaken the immune system, and lead to other diseases, including heart disease.
