Microplastic exposure from tea bags
Have heard tea bags release lots of microplastics when hot water is poured, are there any alternatives other than boiling loose leaf and filtering every time
yes the teabags do release micro plastic in a significant amount. The studies however, are inconsistent as to how much release. Also different type of teabags which releases less micro plastics. In fact, the premium brand teabags which have the pyramid kind of teabags release the most. Lipton and tetley come into a second category., Where the company says It is cellulose pack , but they still have some micro plastics. A truly paper teabags will not release any, but those are hard to find. So maybe lose leaf tea is a better way to go.
