A recent study conducted by environmental research organization Toxics Link found that all Indian salt and sugar brands contain microplastics, regardless of size or packaging. The study tested 10 types of salt and 5 types of sugar and found microplastics in various forms, including fibre, pellets, films, and fragments. Toxics Link hopes to bring attention to this issue and calls for urgent research into the potential health impacts of microplastics on humans.
