Turns out, plastic bottles put plastic into your system.

I really hate these headlines. "100 times more!!! Will somebody think of the children!!!"

A better headline would express if this is actually concerning or not for our health. 100 times more than an insignificant quantity can still be an insignificant quantity.

Let's put it this way: it's infinitely more plastic than would be in your body under natural circumstances.
