where is the chorus of people saying “…in mice?” it goes to show that this comment is used to beat down ideas that they decided they dont like long before reading anything. but for microplastics, which is exactly the kind of politically charged junk food they love, there is no chorus of “in mice.”

anyway, how is it crossing the blood brain barrier? dubious.

lots of things can cause change in behaviour through inflammation. cows milk for example. the solution to this and microplastics and a huge number of diseases will be gaining control of inflammation and metabolism. at the moment we dont even understand how they work.

Why do you think necessarily that this is junk food? Fair that there is no chorus, but what is the problem using mice in an experiment? I mean, it’s done for a reason, right?
