Studies show 4.5x higher rate of heart attack, stroke, and death in people with microplastics in their arterial plaque vs. those without.

In 2024, microplastics found in human plaque. Linked to 4.5x higher stroke/death risk.
the patients who had the most microplastics in their neck arteries had a four and a half times increased risk of cardiovascular disease
Microplastics found in the kateed artery plaque those people with the high amounts of microplastics had a significantly increase I think it was almost four times increased risk of cardiovascular disease
Microplastics are embedded in arterial walls and raise the risk of heart attack or stroke by 4.5x within three years.
