Why Drinking Microplastic-Free Water Matters (And Why You Should Care)

Why Drinking Microplastic-Free Water Matters (And Why You Should Care)

Okay, let’s talk about something that’s kind of wild when you stop and think about it—microplastics.

You’ve probably heard about them floating around in the ocean, but what you might not realize is that they’re also floating around inside a lot of the water people drink every day. Yeah, it’s gross. A study recently found that a single liter of bottled water can have up to 240,000 plastic particles in it. That’s right—every time you crack open a plastic bottle, you could be sipping tiny pieces of plastic without even knowing it.

So What’s the Big Deal?

Well, here’s the thing—these tiny plastic particles aren’t just passing through our systems and calling it a day. They’ve actually been found in human blood, lungs, and even the brain. Scientists are still figuring out exactly what that means for our health, but early research suggests microplastics could mess with our hormones, cause inflammation, and even be linked to heart disease. Not exactly what you want in your drink, right?

We knew we had to do something different. That’s why our water is completely microplastic-free. No sneaky plastic bits, no unnecessary junk—just clean, high-quality artesian-level water in a sustainable Tetra Pak carton instead of a plastic bottle.

Choosing microplastic-free water isn’t just about hydration—it’s about avoiding all the extra junk that shouldn’t be in your body in the first place. We can’t control everything we breathe in or eat, but we can make smarter choices about what we drink.

Does Drinking Microplastic-Free Water Remove Plastic From Your Body?

Short answer? Not exactly. It’s not like drinking our water is going to flush plastic out of your system overnight. But what it will do is stop the steady stream of plastic you’re putting in your body from bottled water and other contaminated sources. And that’s a big deal.

It’s kind of like switching to organic food—one meal isn’t going to change your health overnight, but over time, cutting out pesticides and processed junk can make a difference. Same with microplastics.

The Bottom Line

We’re exposed to microplastics all the time, but we don’t have to be drinking them. Soca Shores gives you an easy way to cut plastic out of your daily routine while enjoying clean, great-tasting water. And let’s be honest—your body will thank you for it.
