That is a great question Tony, but one that is creating a lot of interest. There is so much conflicting statements on the damage, if any plastics have on our health. The World Health Organization (WHO) in its first report on the issue, found that larger particles, and most smaller ones, pass through the body without being absorbed. But it said the findings were based on limited information" as it called for greater research on the issue.  Here is the link to the story Microplastics in water pose ‘no apparent health risk’ - BBC News. P.S Thank you for the comment. Nigel Roberts
