Microplastics have been detected in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. Avoidance alone is no longer a realistic strategy — the threat is everywhere, and it's unavoidable.
01 / AIR
Indoor air carries it
Synthetic fibers shed from clothing, carpet, and furniture stay suspended in the air of nearly every indoor space you spend time in.
02 / WATER
It's in the tap and the bottle
Plastic particles have been found in municipal tap water — and at even higher concentrations in bottled water.
03 / FOOD
It rides in with every meal
Packaging, processing, and the food chain itself deliver plastic particles to the plate — salt, seafood, and produce included.
The Evidence
What microplastics are doing inside the human body
Researchers keep finding plastic particles where they were never meant to be — and the published associations are hard to ignore. This is what the peer-reviewed literature reports about microplastics in human tissue.
4.5x
Arterial plaque
People with microplastics detected in their carotid artery plaque had about 4.5x the risk of heart attack, stroke, or death over the following ~34 months.
Brain samples carried markedly more microplastic than liver or kidney, and decedents with a dementia diagnosis showed substantially higher concentrations.
These are findings about microplastics in the general scientific literature. They describe associations observed in published research, not causation, and not results from using this product. MicroplasticMD is a dietary supplement and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
Every Contact Counts
You don't have to do anything unusual to be exposed.
The plastics touch your food, your water, and the air you breathe — every single day. Here's where the research keeps finding them.
Plastic cutting boards
Chopping on a plastic board can shed tens of thousands of microplastic particles into your food over a year of normal use.
Kitchen
Hot drinks in plastic-lined cups
Hot liquid in plastic-lined cups has been shown to release microplastic particles directly into the drink.
Daily habit
Single-use water bottles
Bottled water can contain hundreds of thousands of nano- and microplastic particles per liter.
Hydration
Plastic food packaging
Wrapping, containers, and cling film transfer microplastics into the foods they hold — especially when heated.
Groceries
Sources reflect findings reported in peer-reviewed microplastics research about everyday exposure routes. Individual exposure varies.
The Solution
In 30 seconds a day, help your body eliminate microplastics.
Once swallowed, microplastics don't just pass straight through. Research shows some particles can cross the intestinal lining and enter the bloodstream. MicroplasticMD works in three stages: bind the particles, buffer the gut around them, and protect the barrier they would otherwise cross.*

01
Bind
Chitosan's positive surface charge attracts negatively charged microplastic particles in the gut, holding them within the fiber matrix during digestion so they're carried toward elimination instead of lingering.*
Active: Chitosan
02
Buffer
Prebiotic fibers — baobab and apple pectin — form a gentle fiber matrix that supports a healthy microbiome and steady transit, helping bound particles keep moving through the gut toward natural elimination.*
Active: Baobab + Apple pectin
03
Protect
Microplastics don't only pass through — some particles can slip between the cells of the gut wall and cross into the bloodstream. Slippery elm's soothing mucilage coats and supports the intestinal lining — the barrier those particles must cross — to support the gut's natural defenses during daily use.*

The Claims
26.3% lower measured blood microplastics. 45%+ more cleared in stool. Both tied to the core ingredient, chitosan.

01
Human Blood Study*
CLINICAL
In a 2026 human study, daily chitosan supplementation was associated with a 26.3% decrease in measured blood microplastic concentration after 15 days, while the placebo group showed no significant change.

02
Human Stool Study*
CLINICAL
In a 2025 human crossover study, chitosan was associated with over 45% more microplastic particles measured in stool versus baseline after a standardized meal — direct evidence of increased fecal elimination.

Preclinical Study*
ANIMAL MODEL
In animal models, chitosan was associated with increased elimination of ingested microplastic particles from the gastrointestinal tract.
PMID: 40268980

Mechanism
HOW IT WORKS
Chitosan is a positively charged dietary fiber that can interact with negatively charged microplastic particles during digestion, supporting their movement through normal digestive elimination.

How It Binds
Free particles vs. bound particles
Chitosan is a positively charged fiber. In published research, it interacts with negatively charged particles and pulls them together into a fiber matrix — the difference you can picture under the microscope.
Free-floating particles
Without binding fiber, microplastic particles disperse and stay free to move through the gut.
Bound into fiber
With chitosan fiber, the same particles are drawn together into an aggregate for easier natural clearance.

Whole-Body Support
One supplement, support for 9 systems
Microplastics have been detected across the whole body — so support starts where most of them enter: the gut. By binding particles before they're absorbed, MicroplasticMD is designed to support the systems that exposure touches.*
01
Brain & nervous system
Where particles have shown the highest detected concentrations.
02
Heart & arteries
Plaque-associated particles studied for cardiovascular risk.
03
Lungs
Fibers found deep in lung tissue.
04
Liver
A primary filtering organ for circulating particles.
05
Gut & digestion
The main entry point — and where binding happens.
06
Kidneys
Filtration tissue where particles have been measured.
07
Reproductive system
Particles detected in semen and placental tissue.
08
Immune system
Linked to inflammatory signaling in lab studies.
09
Skin & barrier tissue
Your body's outermost line of contact.
Microplastics have been detected in these systems in published research. Support is provided through gut-level binding of particles before absorption; this is not a claim to treat or protect any specific organ. *These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
01What is MicroplasticMD and how does it work?
MicroplasticMD is a daily supplement formulated to support the body's natural processes for managing microplastics in the digestive tract.* Its carefully selected ingredients, including dietary fibers, interact with particles during digestion to support normal elimination and digestive wellness.*
02How does MicroplasticMD interact with microplastics in the body?
MicroplasticMD is formulated with ingredients that interact with microplastics during digestion, supporting their excretion through normal bowel movements. Its formulation is intentionally focused on the digestive tract, where everyday exposures pass through the body. This gut-based approach complements the body's existing elimination pathways and is designed for consistent, daily use.*
03Is MicroplasticMD safe for daily use?
Yes. MicroplasticMD is formulated for daily use by most healthy adults when taken as directed on the label. It works locally in the digestive system, does not accumulate in the body, and is designed to support consistent digestive elimination.* Every ingredient is Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) for human use as designated by the FDA.
Always follow the recommended serving size. Taking more than directed does not provide additional benefit and may increase the chance of digestive discomfort.
04Who should use MicroplasticMD?
MicroplasticMD can be a valuable supplement for anyone exposed to food, water, and air — so practically everybody. However, MicroplasticMD should not be used by individuals with shellfish or seafood allergies, or by those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18.
05Does MicroplasticMD contain plastic or microplastics?
No. MicroplasticMD does not contain plastic or microplastics. The capsules and ingredients are carefully selected to avoid plastic content, and the product is designed with a strong emphasis on minimizing unnecessary plastic exposure wherever possible.
