In the cold season, at Christmas markets, or just walking somewhere street, many people buy hot drinks in paper cups to keep warm. However, scientists claim that such disposable tableware can lead to a number of dangerous diseases, the NBN publication reports with reference to ScienceDirect.

The study showed that within 15 minutes, up to 25,000 microparticles of plastic get into a hot drink, along with carcinogens – phenol, gum, formaldehyde and lead.

If you drink tea or coffee from such disposable tableware three times a day, about 75,000 particles of heavy metals and other harmful elements can get into your body. The result is weakened immunity, serious illnesses in adults, and pathologies in children.

Therefore, experts recommend taking a thermos mug with you on a walk so as not to harm your health.

As reported, a gastroenterologist analyzed the extreme OMAD diet, which involves eating once a day.
