Abstract in brief

  • The study found that frequent exposure to plastic takeout containers, especially when heated, is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, including congestive heart failure, in humans.
  • In experiments with rats, leachate from heated plastics caused changes in gut microbiota, increased inflammation, and cellular damage in the heart tissue, along with elevated markers of oxidative stress and inflammation.
  • Overall, plastic exposure appears to negatively impact the cardiovascular system by altering gut bacteria and causing direct damage to heart tissues, making it a potential risk factor for heart diseases regardless of how long the exposure occurs.]
