‼️Comment below “DISHES” for toxinfree dishwasher detergent pods we love!⤵️⤵️⤵️ That dissolvable pod film? It’s made from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) — a synthetic plastic. ❌Studies show up to 75% of PVA doesn’t fully break down after water treatment and can persist as microplastics. ❌Each pod releases 12–52 microplastic particles per wash cycle. 🇺🇸Estimated U.S. Household Impact Over 75 million U.S. households use automatic dishwashers. If even 10% use pods daily, that’s: ~7.5 million pods/day At 12–52 particles per pod, that’s: 90 to 390 million microplastic particles released daily just in the U.S.🙈 Emerging research shows microplastics may also impact human health: ‼️Oxidative stress — linked to aging and chronic disease ‼️Inflammation — a root cause of many illnesses ‼️Hormonal disruption — affecting fertility, metabolism, and even child development Microplastics have been found in: 🫁Lungs 💉 Blood 💩 Stool 🍼 Even in placentas The scary part?
