minus-squareNostraDavid@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up20·1 年前 In regards to humans, progress is being made. In coming years, expect greater clarity about effects on our bodies such as: inflammation oxidative stress (an imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants that damages cells) immune responses genotoxicity – damage to the genetic information in a cell that causes mutations, which can lead to cancer. TL;DR yes, cancer. It also fucks with wildlife (blocking intestines, giving off poison)
minus-squarewabafee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10arrow-down1·edit-21 年前Good chance it probably is, possibly increase chance for asthma, chance for heart attack, another is it probably makes us infertile probably a good thing depending how you think of it.
minus-squarewabafee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-21 年前Mostly guess though I think remember reading some of it. Here are the links if your interested. 4.1 Fertility effects in adult males Microplastics Linked to Heart Attack, Stroke and Death Detrimental effects of microplastic exposure on normal and asthmatic pulmonary physiology Could Microplastics Be a Driver for Early Onset Colorectal Cancer? Disclaimer not a doctor, just some random guy in the internet.
