Why Do Babies Poop Plastics?


Recent research shows that babies’ poop contains 10 times more microplastics than that of adults*. Plastics are polluting water, air, soil, and everything else including the human body. Microplastics are constantly ingested and inhaled. You and everyone you know, especially babies and children, are becoming “plasticized” – microplastics are found in blood, tissues, saliva and feces.
