Contamination is further compounded by plastic packaging and storage materials, which can leach MNPs over time, leading to additional ingestion from common foods and drinks. [10] [27] Fecal sample analyses estimate a daily intake of approximately 203–332 MNP particles, translating to an annual ingestion rate of around 39,000–52,000 particles.
The metals are associated with higher rates of cancer and kidney failure, as well as cardiovascular diseases. “It is reasonable to advise the people of La Pajuela not to drink from their water sources,” the report concluded.
