Plastic Pollution and the Gut-Brain Axis — New Clues from Microbiome Research
How Microplastics Disrupt the Body’s Communication NetworkThe gut and the brain are closely linked through a complex biochemical pathway known as the gut–brain axis. Recent studies (Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2024) reveal that micro- and nanoplastics can alter the gut microbiome — the community of beneficial bacteria that regulate digestion, mood, and immunity.When plastic particles enter […]
Klar2O’s 2024 Milestones – A Year of Growth, Innovation, and Impact
As we look back on 2024, it’s hard to put into words how proud and grateful we are for everything Klar2O has achieved. This year marked a turning point in our journey toward tackling the global microplastics crisis and ensuring cleaner, safer water for all
The Microplastic Megatsunami is coming!
A Chinese study from February 2024 shows that the current levels of microplastic pollution are probably just the beginning. Plastic products from the 1980s are only now breaking down into microplastics and nanoplastics.
