“It forms fine inhalable particles with diameters typically 2.5 micrograms (PM2.5) or less. Exposure to particulate matter promotes oxidative stress and increases the risk of developing many chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, hypertension, and diabetes.”

“For example, a comprehensive review of the effects of microplastics revealed that the pollutants induce oxidative stress and increase the risk for metabolic dysfunction, neurotoxicity, and some cancers.”

“They assessed the animals' ability to perform memory tasks and then measured levels of amyloid-beta and proinflammatory molecules in the animals' brains. They found that NP03 improved cognitive performance, reduced amyloid-beta burden, and reduced markers of neuroinflammation and cellular oxidative stress in the mice.”

“For example, diet-induced oxidative stress, micronutrient status, and aging can influence influenza virus virulence. The authors of the study serially infected lean and obese mice with the influenza virus to replicate the spread of influenza within the real-world setting.”

“Both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), the two main forms of omega-3 fatty acids, suppress inflammation, regulate neurogenesis, decrease oxidative stress, and protect the aging brain.”

“This effect was exacerbated by the high-fat/high-sugar diet. However, the researchers found that exercise ameliorated some of the harmful vascular effects of the high-fat/high-sugar diet throughout the lifespan, likely due to lower levels of oxidative stress and inflammation.”

“It is a key player in the body’s circadian metabolic processes and serves as the body’s natural sleep inducer. Melatonin production may be impaired in a pro-inflammatory state, and increased oxidative stress and inflammation may reduce sleep quality.”

“The role of Yamanaka factors was demonstrated in vivo in a mouse model of premature aging in which short-term induction of Yamanaka factors improved markers of aging, including those associated with tumor suppression, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress.”

“Plastic pollution isn't just an environmental issue—it may also pose hidden risks to human health. Growing evidence suggests that tiny plastic fragments, known as microplastics and nanoplastics, could contribute to chronic diseases by causing inflammation and oxidative stress.”

“The plastics detected included polyethylene, polypropylene, and PET, the same materials in everyday items like bags and bottles. These microplastics can cause inflammation and oxidative stress, leading to respiratory problems such as asthma and COPD.”
