Gary Brecka explains how microplastics smaller than 5 mm enter your body through ingestion, causing inflammation and chemical toxicity. There's no proven way to eliminate them completely, but your body's detoxification systems can reduce the burden. He outlines a protocol starting with Step 1: Ultimate Human to limit exposure and remove accumulated particles.
These plastics are no longer just polluting oceans or contaminating the food supply. They've become part of the human body itself. Today, we're breaking down exactly how to get microplastics out of the body and keep them out for good. Microplastics are tiny plastic particles, smaller than 5 millimeters in size, often formed when larger plastics break down over time. And since plastic doesn't biodegrade, it ends up accumulating in the environment and everyday items. Once ingested, these microplastics can cause physical irritation and inflammation in the GI tract. This can potentially lead to chemical toxicity since these particles actually carry other absorbed contaminants right into the body. Right now, there's no scientifically approven way to completely clear microplastics from the body. But that doesn't mean that you're powerless. What the current research does show is that the body already possesses highly sophisticated detoxification and elimination systems. Implementing certain lifestyle interventions may help reduce the total burden while limiting ongoing exposure. So here's the protocol I would recommend. Step 1. Ultimate human.
