Recent studies have raised concerns about the potential health risks associated with using certain types of tea bags, particularly those made from plastic materials.
Microplastic Release
Research indicates that tea bags made from materials such as nylon and polypropylene can release billions of microplastic particles into the beverage when steeped in hot water.
Health Implications
The ingestion of microplastics has been linked to various health issues, including inflammation, chronic diseases, and potential genetic damage.
Recommendations
Health experts advise consumers to opt for loose-leaf tea or tea bags made from biodegradable materials to minimize exposure to microplastics and associated health risks.
