A new standard in coffee flavor. Crafted from durable double wall stainless steel with a large 12oz capacity, our unique 3-in-1 brew method speeds up extraction for less bitterness and a smoother, more full-bodied cup.
but there have been eye-opening studies if you have been paying attention.
You picked the wrong guy for this. Junk science in a second rate journal is not eye opening. Correlation is not causation.
"Compared to adjacent non-cancerous tissues, tumor tissues exhibited a greater variety and distribution of microplastics. "
Because cancerous tissue does not have the intact structure of normal tissues. They see all kinds of stuff in tumors that the lymphatic system clears out of healthy tissues. That paper does not show HOW plastic polymers could cause tumors, because no one can show this in 50 years of research.
Again, we have been implanting plastic stents and meshes and prosthetics for 60+ years. The experiment has been done.
Since this thread is looking for something to be afraid of, look at coffee brewing with and without paper filtration. Filtered brews yield caffeine and compounds healthy for liver functions. Unfiltered coffees contain diterpenes, cafestol and kahweol, which signficantly raise total and LDL cholesterol, which is bad. Actual science, not media driven hype fear.
Let’s assume you’re right (you’re not, but for the sake of argument)
There are no problems with microplastics. However they are near ubiquitous throughout the environment, across our food chains, in every part of our body. We’re long past the point of being able to clean them up And there are more and more every year.
Are you really so comfortable that they will never cause problems for ourselves, or any of the millions of types of life forms in our biosphere? That there’s no threshold that’s dangerous? Ever?
We’re being foolish and short-sighted with our impact on the environment, turning what may not be a problem into if it is, we will have created a worldwide disaster that we can’t do anything about
