The invention of plastics brought us durable solutions to daily problems. But now, microplastics are harnessing that durability to stick around in our bodies. On this week’s episode of Health Wanted, host Laurel Bristow and guest Carmen Marsit, PhD, talk about how microplastics and forever chemicals get into the environment and our bodies, how they impact our health, and what we can do about it.

Bristow also answers your questions about why some people get bit by mosquitoes more than others, what good the HPV vaccine has done, what’s the deal with mpox, and if you should use ivermectin for general wellness. Plus, the Sick of the Week.
