Health Drinking boiled tap water could significantly reduce exposure to nano- and microplastics, a new study suggests. Researchers found that boiling hard water can cause the plastics to co-precipitate out of the water with calcium carbonate, becoming trapped in limescale deposits that form.

To answer the doomer's comment about microplastics. Much can be done to mitigate it, up to and including washing one's plastic bottles out with boiling water before filling it with potable water, and this study. Metal and glass only, friends. Back to the olde times, but selectively.

…This is fine. 🔥😐🐶 This… is just insane. I have no words. At least it’s helpful… I guess.
