93 percent of bottled water contains microplastics, study says

Though there is no evidence to date that ingesting microplastics is harmful to the human body, the researchers believe that the implications need to be better understood.

"It's not catastrophic, the numbers that we're seeing, but it is concerning, Mason said.
