Claim Breakdown:
π Fact Check: While bottled water is an undisputed heavyweight champion of plastic ingestion, scientists are still debating the exact breakdown of our overall exposure. We also inhale massive amounts of microplastics from household dust, tire wear, and ingest them from food items like seafood and table salt! π Because exposure pathways vary wildly depending on lifestyle, definitively crowning bottled water as the absolute 'biggest' source is an oversimplification, though it is undeniably a critical source.
