Following up on our vitamin D discussion, many of you have asked about tackling another modern health challenge: <strong>microplastics<\/strong>. These tiny plastic fragments are everywhere, and their impact on our health is a growing concern. But fear not, because the <strong>iMedDo Detox System<\/strong>, with its powerful blend of Iodine, Silver, and Gold, is your invaluable ally in this detox journey. Let&#8217;s dive into the world of microplastics and how we can fight back!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"216\" height=\"146\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAyMTYgMTQ2IiB3aWR0aD0iMjE2IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjE0NiIgZGF0YS11PSJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRmltZWRkby5jbHViJTJGbmV3cyUyRndwLWNvbnRlbnQlMkZ1cGxvYWRzJTJGMjAyNSUyRjA0JTJGU2NyZWVuLVNob3QtMjAyNS0wNC0wNi1hdC0yLjE1LjU2LVBNLnBuZyIgZGF0YS13PSIyMTYiIGRhdGEtaD0iMTQ2IiBkYXRhLWJpcD0iIj48L3N2Zz4=\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3294\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Exactly Are Microplastics?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Microplastics are simply small plastic particles, often defined as being under 5 millimeters in size. They arise from the breakdown of larger plastics through environmental factors like sunlight (photo-degradation). What&#8217;s particularly concerning are <strong>halogenated microplastics<\/strong>, containing elements like chlorine and especially fluorine (as in PFAS). These are more resistant to breakdown and, being lipophilic (fat-loving), tend to <strong>bioaccumulate<\/strong> in our bodies and <strong>biomagnify<\/strong> up the food chain, posing a significant threat to both our health and the environment. The recent buzz around highly toxic <strong>PFAS<\/strong> highlights the urgency of this issue. Because microplastics can even cross the blood-brain barrier, their impact extends beyond our physical well-being, potentially affecting our mental clarity and even our spiritual journey. You can&#8217;t meditate on a brain full of Barbie doll bits!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"561\" height=\"134\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA1NjEgMTM0IiB3aWR0aD0iNTYxIiBoZWlnaHQ9IjEzNCIgZGF0YS11PSJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRmltZWRkby5jbHViJTJGbmV3cyUyRndwLWNvbnRlbnQlMkZ1cGxvYWRzJTJGMjAyNSUyRjA0JTJGU2NyZWVuLVNob3QtMjAyNS0wNC0wNy1hdC0xMS4zNi4wNy1BTS5wbmciIGRhdGEtdz0iNTYxIiBkYXRhLWg9IjEzNCIgZGF0YS1iaXA9IiI+PC9zdmc+\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3311\"  \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Decoding the Plastic Jungle: Recycling Numbers Matter<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding the different types of plastics is key to minimizing exposure. Here&#8217;s a quick rundown of common plastics and their potential toxicity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>#1 PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate):<\/strong> Often found in clear beverage bottles. Dr. Ben Go now considers this a <strong>&#8220;Red &#8211; Avoid&#8221;<\/strong> plastic due to its potential to leach <strong>benzene-like compounds (xenoestrogens)<\/strong> and <strong>heavy metals like antimony or titanium<\/strong>. It&#8217;s estimated that <strong>90% of human plastic exposure comes from drinking from plastic bottles<\/strong>, and PET is a major culprit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>#2 HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene):<\/strong> Typically found in more opaque containers like milk jugs. Considered a <strong>&#8220;Green &#8211; Safe&#8221;<\/strong> plastic as it&#8217;s a simple hydrocarbon chain.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>#3 PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride):<\/strong> A <strong>&#8220;Red &#8211; Avoid&#8221;<\/strong> plastic due to its <strong>chlorine content (halogenated)<\/strong> and potential for toxic additives like <strong>PCBs (now banned) and phthalates (xenoestrogens)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>#4 LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene):<\/strong> Another <strong>&#8220;Green &#8211; Safe&#8221;<\/strong> hydrocarbon chain plastic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>#5 PP (Polypropylene):<\/strong> A <strong>&#8220;Green &#8211; Safe&#8221;<\/strong> hydrocarbon chain plastic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>#6 PS (Polystyrene):<\/strong> A <strong>&#8220;Red &#8211; Avoid&#8221;<\/strong> plastic due to its <strong>benzene-like ring structure<\/strong>. Can leach carcinogenic styrene, especially when heated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>#7 PC (Polycarbonate):<\/strong> A <strong>&#8220;Red &#8211; Avoid&#8221;<\/strong> plastic containing <strong>double benzene-like ring structures (xenoestrogens)<\/strong> and the notorious <strong>BPA (another xenoestrogen)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key Takeaway:<\/strong> Prioritize <strong>#2 (HDPE), #4 (LDPE), and #5 (PP)<\/strong> when you need to use plastic. <strong>Avoid #1 (PET), #3 (PVC), #6 (PS), and #7 (PC)<\/strong>, especially for food and beverages. Be wary of &#8220;BPA-free&#8221; labels, ensuring the replacement plastic is actually safer (like HDPE) and not a worse alternative like PVC.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"399\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NTAgMzk5IiB3aWR0aD0iNDUwIiBoZWlnaHQ9IjM5OSIgZGF0YS11PSJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRmltZWRkby5jbHViJTJGbmV3cyUyRndwLWNvbnRlbnQlMkZ1cGxvYWRzJTJGMjAyNSUyRjA2JTJGaW1lZGRvdHJpbml0eS0xLnBuZyIgZGF0YS13PSI0NTAiIGRhdGEtaD0iMzk5IiBkYXRhLWJpcD0iIj48L3N2Zz4=\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3452\"  \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The iMedDo Advantage: Your Microplastic Detox Protocol<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>iMedDo Detox System<\/strong>, comprising <strong>NeuIodine, NeuSilver, and NeuGold<\/strong>, offers a powerful and comprehensive approach to microplastic detoxification:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>NeuGold: Targeting Benzene-Like Microplastics:<\/strong> Dr. Ben Go&#8217;s personal experience shows that <strong>nano-colloidal gold<\/strong> is remarkably effective at detoxing <strong>benzene-like compounds<\/strong> in the brain. Since <strong>PET, PS, and PC microplastics<\/strong> break down into these structures, NeuGold is crucial for neutralizing their toxicity, potentially <strong>detoxing them from the brain in days, not weeks<\/strong> as suggested by recent research (Huang 2025). Gold also aids in detoxing fluorine and other halogens and acts as a general anti-inflammatory in the brain and liver.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>NeuIodine: The Universal Detoxifier:<\/strong> Nascent iodine is the heavy lifter, capable of breaking down <strong>carbon polymers (the backbone of all plastics)<\/strong>, including both <strong>halogenated (PVC, PTFE, PFAS)<\/strong> and <strong>ring-structured (PET, PS, PC)<\/strong> microplastics. It&#8217;s especially vital for tackling stubborn <strong>fluorinated microplastics (PFAS)<\/strong>. Iodine also helps clear calcium fluoride crystals, improving circulation and preventing microplastics from getting stuck.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>NeuSilver: The Anti-Biofilm Protector:<\/strong> Nano-colloidal silver is a potent anti-germicidal, disrupting <strong>bacterial biofilms that can thrive on microplastic surfaces<\/strong>. This is crucial for preventing the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Silver also acts as a full-body anti-inflammatory and supports kidney function during detoxification, as microplastics are eliminated through urine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/388280302_Microplastics_in_the_bloodstream_can_induce_cerebral_thrombosis_by_causing_cell_obstruction_and_lead_to_neurobehavioral_abnormalities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Huang H et al.
