Microplastics are on our minds... literally 🧠 They enter our bodies through the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, and the products we use every day. Our bodies can likely clear some (through digestion, respiration, and waste), but we don’t yet know how long they stay or how to fully remove them. Research is still evolving, but here’s why scientists think the brain may hold higher concentrations of microplastic:
 🧬 The brain is fat-rich, and microplastics tend to accumulate in fatty tissue
 🧠 The blood-brain barrier may make them harder to clear once they penetrate
 🔬Smaller particles may cross into the brain more easily than we once thought
