EFSA Podcast – Episode 41 Microplastics in food: What we (don’t) know

Microplastics are everywhere, from the oceans to our food, but what do we really know about their impact on our health? In this episode, we take a closer look at where microplastics come from, how they end up in food and drinking water, and what happens to them once they enter our bodies. Together with EFSA expert Elena Rovesti, we explore what science can already tell us, why so many uncertainties remain, and what research is under way to better understand the risks linked to microplastics in food.
