Every day, invisible plastic particles are entering our bodies?through the air we breathe, the water we drink, and even the food we eat. These microscopic fragments, known as microplastics, are a silent and growing concern for human health and the environment.

This book offers a clear, accessible, and science-based exploration of microplastics. It explains:

• What microplastics are ? their sources, types, and how they are formed.
• Where they are found ? from oceans, rivers, and soil to packaged food and household products.
• How they enter the human body ? via ingestion, inhalation, and even skin contact.
• Health problems linked to microplastics ? including potential effects on the lungs, digestive system, fertility, hormone balance, immunity, and long-term disease risks.
• Global research and case studies that reveal the alarming spread of microplastics across ecosystems.
• What you can do ? practical steps to reduce exposure in everyday life and contribute to a healthier planet.
