Drinking water is essential to our health. But did you know that plastic particles are now being detected in the human brain?
This shocking discovery is not science fiction – it’s science.
How does plastic get into our body?
We ingest micro- and nanoplastics daily through food, air, and especially drinking water. Bottled water, in particular, is a major contributor.
A 2024 study by Columbia University found that a single liter of bottled water can contain up to 240,000 plastic particles, most of them nanoplastics invisible to the eye.
Because nanoplastics are smaller than 100 nanometers, they can pass through cellular membranes and reach vital organs – including the brain.
What are the health effects of plastic in the body?
Recent findings raise serious concerns:
- In the brain: In 2023, researchers at the University of Vienna successfully demonstrated that nanoplastics can cross the blood–brain barrier in mice, potentially affecting memory and behavior.
- Inflammation: Studies suggest microplastics can trigger chronic immune responses and oxidative stress, which are linked to long-term diseases.
- Toxic cargo: Plastics can carry heavy metals, PFAS, and other environmental toxins deeper into the body than they’d travel alone.
What can you do to protect yourself?
Most technology cannot remove particles this small. That’s where Klar2O comes in.
Our technology combine with specialized adsorptive media to capture even the tiniest plastic residues and associated toxins — delivering safer, cleaner water at the source.
Reduce your daily plastic intake – starting with what matters most: your water.
