The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that up to 1 billion plastic particles are in bottled water.

A recent study suggests that bottled water may contain up to 100 times more plastic particles than previously estimated. Using refined technology, researchers found an average of 240,000 detectable plastic fragments per liter of water in popular bottled water brands. This raises potential health concerns that require further study, as these nanoplastics can penetrate human cells, enter the bloodstream, and impact major organs.
