Microplastics aren’t just polluting the planet, they’re showing up in our bodies. Recent studies have confirmed that these tiny plastic particles, along with the chemicals that come with them, can be found in human blood. And until recently, there was no practical way for individuals to find out how much exposure they personally carried.
That’s why Optimal Health Systems now offers PlasticTest: the world’s first at-home microplastics blood test. It gives you real data about your body’s plastic load, so you can stop guessing and start making informed choices about your health.
This test is more than just a number. It’s a tool for taking back control. Whether you’re already working on reducing plastic exposure or just starting to learn about the risks, knowing what’s in your bloodstream is the first step toward meaningful change.
Why You Should Test for Microplastics in Your Blood
Plastic exposure is part of everyday life. It comes from the water we drink, the food we eat, the packaging we touch, and even the air we breathe. Over time, these tiny particles accumulate and begin to circulate through the bloodstream, bringing with them harmful chemicals like BPA, phthalates, and PFAS.
These chemicals are linked to serious health concerns, including hormone imbalance, inflammation, metabolic disorders, and even cancer. The problem is, most people have no idea how much plastic is actually in their body. And without that information, it’s easy to ignore the issue until symptoms appear.
That’s why testing matters. PlasticTest provides a clear picture of your internal exposure. Instead of relying on assumptions, you get specific, lab-certified results that show the number, size, and concentration of microplastics in your blood. This knowledge helps you take targeted steps to protect your health before long-term damage occurs.
How PlasticTest Works
PlasticTest is designed to be simple, accurate, and accessible. With this at-home kit from Optimal Health Systems, there’s no need for lab appointments or complex procedures. Everything you need arrives in the mail, and every component, from the lancets to the shipping materials, is free of microplastics to avoid contamination.
Using the included materials, you collect a small dried blood sample with a quick finger prick. Then you place your sample on the provided card, seal it, and send it back using the prepaid envelope. Your sample is processed in a CLIA and COLA-certified lab using a peer-reviewed method that ensures complete accuracy and zero contamination.
Once your results are ready, you’ll receive them directly through your secure OHS Health Portal. The report shows the total number of microplastic particles found, their size, and the concentration levels in your blood. It also identifies which types of plastic were detected. This includes common forms like polyethylene (PE), PET, PVC, and polystyrene (PS).
This isn’t just general data. It’s your personal exposure profile, built to help you make specific, informed decisions about your detox and long-term health strategy.
What the Results Actually Tell You
Your PlasticTest results do more than confirm exposure, they also provide clarity. Each report breaks down the exact number of microplastic particles detected, along with their size and concentration. This level of detail allows you to understand how much plastic is actually circulating in your bloodstream.
Even more importantly, the test identifies which types of plastic are present. This matters because certain types, like PVC and polystyrene, carry a higher toxic load and are more likely to interfere with your hormones, metabolism, and immune system. Others, like PET, are often linked to food and beverage packaging, offering clues about where your exposure might be coming from.
These insights can guide your next steps. If your levels are high, you’ll know it’s time to begin a focused detox. If your results show lower concentrations, you can maintain healthy habits while continuing to monitor your progress over time. Either way, PlasticTest gives you a foundation for real change.
What to Do If Your Levels Are High
Finding out you have microplastics in your bloodstream can be unsettling, but it’s also an opportunity to take control. Once you know your levels, you can take direct, effective steps to reduce them and protect your long-term health.
Start with a proven detox protocol. Optimal Health Systems developed the Plastic Detox Pak specifically to support the body’s natural ability to eliminate plastic-related toxins. It includes Phthalazyme, the only enzyme formula designed to help break down phthalates, one of the most common and dangerous plastic compounds found in the human body. This full protocol also includes nutrients that support gut health, liver function, and detoxification pathways.
For additional support, you can also use ChemZyme, a whole-food enzyme supplement that helps break down chemical compounds and supports cellular-level cleansing. Used together, these two products offer a natural, targeted solution for reducing your body’s toxic load.
Beyond supplementation, make small lifestyle shifts that reduce ongoing exposure. Avoid heating food in plastic containers. Choose glass or stainless steel for food storage. Cut down on processed and packaged foods. Each of these changes can reduce the daily intake of microplastics and support better results over time.
How Often Should You Test?
Plastic exposure is ongoing, so regular testing is key for staying ahead of the problem. We recommend starting with an initial test to establish your baseline. If your levels are elevated, follow up with another test after completing a 90-day detox protocol like the Plastic Detox Pak.
Ongoing maintenance testing every four to six months can help you track your progress, adjust your detox plan, and stay accountable. Even if your exposure is low, periodic testing ensures that changes in your environment or habits aren’t causing new buildup.
Testing puts you in control. It transforms microplastic exposure from a silent risk into something you can measure, manage, and reduce naturally and effectively.
Know Your Numbers and Protect Your Health
Microplastics are no longer just an environmental concern, they’re a personal health issue. With PlasticTest from Optimal Health Systems, you finally have a way to measure your exposure and take meaningful action. Your results give you clarity, and your next steps can be guided by targeted tools like the Plastic Detox Pak and ChemZyme.
You can’t change what you don’t measure. Testing gives you the power to move forward with purpose, protect your body, and support long-term wellness in a natural way.
