Iba de un paciente a otro, cargando mi botella reutilizable de agua de una sala a otra para mantenerme hidratada. “No deberías beber de esa botella de plástico estando embarazada —me advirtió con amabilidad una trabajadora social, abuela de cinco nietos”. Sonreí y la tranquilicé:“Ya lo revisé: no contiene BPA”. Era mi primer embarazo, hace más de 13 años. En ese entonces, en cuanto a los plásticos y la salud, lo único que sabía era que debía evitar el BPA (bisfenol A), un disruptor hormonal.

Microplastics have been found everywhere on Earth and in every part of the human body where scientists have looked. Even organs that have additional protective barriers – think the blood-brain barrier or the blood-testis barrier – have proved no match for keeping out these tiny particles, which form as larger plastic objects break down or shed into our air, water, and food. Even newborns taking their first breath have already been doused in many plastic-related chemicals.

I was shuttling between patients, carrying my reusable water bottle from room to room to stay hydrated. “You shouldn’t drink out of that plastic bottle while you’re pregnant,” a kind social worker – grandmother to five – warned me gently. I smiled, reassured her: “I checked – it’s BPA-free.”It was my first pregnancy, over 13 years ago.
