They've been found in surprising places from the deepest oceans to our food and even breast milk. If you're worried about ingesting these microplastics through your drinking water, a new study offers a simple solution you can implement right at home. A Simple Way to Remove Microplastics in Your Drinking Water Boiling and Filtering Can Significantly Reduce Microplastics This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is water.jpeg Researchers published a promising study in the Environmental Science & Technology Letters journal. Their findings suggest that boiling and filtering your tap water can eliminate up to 90% of microplastics. The research team analyzed tap water samples from 14 countries, finding microplastics in a staggering 129 out of 159 samples. To investigate further, they created simulated tap water containing minerals, chemicals, and microplastics commonly found in real tap water. Their goal was to see if the simple act of boiling could effectively remove microplastics. The results were particularly interesting for hard water, which contains high levels of minerals like calcium and magnesium. When heated, calcium carbonate (a common component of hard water) solidifies. The study revealed that this calcium solidifies around microplastic particles, making them easily trapped by a basic filter, like a coffee filter. A Promising Approach, But More Research Needed This study offers a glimmer of hope for those concerned about microplastics and other contaminants in their drinking water. However, the researchers acknowledge the need for further investigation. The long-term health effects of microplastic ingestion and the effectiveness of boiling and filtering as a removal method require more study. The researchers see this study as a springboard for further research. However, they emphasize that boiling water is a simple and accessible method for most people. Boiling not only tackles microplastics but also eliminates harmful bacteria, parasites, and viruses – an added health benefit. For those who find boiling every glass of water inconvenient, consider investing in a filter specifically designed to remove microplastics. This way, you can enjoy cleaner, safer drinking water with minimal effort. By implementing these simple steps, you can significantly reduce your exposure to microplastics in your drinking water. Remember, even while further research is ongoing, boiling and filtering offer a promising and readily available solution for cleaner, healthier drinking water.
