Amy and Jen discuss the recent guardian headlines stating that 'bottle fed babies swallow millions of micro plastics every day'. We discuss what micro plastics are, where they can be found and whether or not they are in babies' milk as this headline reports. We give answers to the questions that might be springing to your mind according to the most recent evidence available - do we ingest them, do we absorb them into organs, can they cross into the placenta and most importantly - should we be worried about them? We talk about some possible alternatives to reduce the risk for parents who are concerned about potential health risks, as well as pitfalls to watch out in terms of formula milk preparation and advice health visitors can give with confidence. As ever we love to hear your comments, suggestions or ideas for this or future episodes, drop us an email to iamahealthvisitor@gmail.com Resources and References: Guardian Article https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/oct/19/bottle-fed-babies-swallow-millions-microplastics-day-study Microplastics in food (adults and children) Cox et al 2019 https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.est.9b01517 Microplastic contamination of drinking water: A systematic review Danopoulos, Twiddy & Rotchelle 2020 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32735575/ Plastic teabags have recently been shown to release microplastics and nano plastics into our cups of tea. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.est.9b02540 We can also estimate that we all ingest around 80g of micro plastics per day from fruits and vegetables, because the soil is polluted with them.
