This is an incorrect usage of the word "mitigate." To mitigate means to lessen the risk. Mitigation requires action.

I suspect you mean that the risks are "overstated."

I barely think the risks have been stated at all. They found a correlation between high levels of microplastics in the brain and dementia. There is a correlation between a bunch of things and dementia. I expect there is a correlation between good health and dementia, unhealthy people would tend to die off young without the time to fall apart mentally.
