Beware: The Toxic Truth Behind Your Disposable Cups

While paper or plastic cups seem like a convenient option, studies suggest potential health risks associated with them, especially when used for hot beverages. Here's a breakdown of the possible concerns:
• Microplastic release: A research published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials found that hot liquids can cause the plastic lining inside paper cups to degrade, releasing billions of microplastics into the drink. These tiny particles are invisible to the naked eye and can potentially enter the bloodstream.
• Leaching of chemicals: The study also mentions the potential release of heavy metals and other toxic chemicals like fluoride, chloride, sulfate, and nitrate from the plastic lining at high temperatures
These cups can be recycled easily but not your health.
