Microplastics and Women's Health

Microplastics can be found everywhere, with 8 billion tonnes of plastic present in the environment. It can be found in the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe. Humans are increasingly being exposed to plastic even before their birth. Plastic endangers human health at every stage of its lifetime, causing cancer, heart disease, and various other health issues. Microplastics (MPs) are present in many items, including cosmetics, synthetic garments, plastic bags, and bottles. Many of these products are easily discarded into the environment.

It must be noted that women are also more likely than men to be exposed to plastic and its pollutants. Women are using more cosmetic, personal care, and cleaning products due to ingrained ideals about beauty, wellbeing, and the role of women at home.

According to a 2019 study, people consume nearly five grams of small plastic particles per week, roughly the weight of a credit card. Plastic particles enter the human food chain via packaging and enter the body via sea salt, shellfish, and even drinking water. Plastic products contain thousands of recognised compounds.

While most people cannot live without plastic, there are reusable alternatives to the majority of single-use plastic items. The goal is not to eliminate all plastic from daily life. However, to decrease their convenience and cease supporting the few producers who continue to benefit from the world's plastic crisis.

Lemme Be is a menstrual hygiene company where its goods are designed with the end user's comfort and safety in mind. Try our Z-Drip Max, a reusable period panty made of environmentally friendly cotton fiber. Please see the following link:

Do you exercise during your period?

Workouts during periods are a big ‘No’ for Menstruator. All we do is lie down or sit in a comfortable position with the least movement. Hello! Get up and try some new moves as there is no reason to skip exercise. Instead it will make you feel better and might ease a few of the complaints that you face during menstruation.

The top 3 benefits of exercise during periods:

1) Ease PMS symptoms: the foremost benefit of exercise is the way it alleviates the fatigue, bloating, cravings, pains and cramps

2) Makes your periods regular: exercising while on periods might help with your irregular cycle to become regular. Go for aerobics as they are not only enjoyable but also great for irregular periods

3) Mood booster: thanks to your endorphin level which increases during exercise and is responsible for elevated moods. If you exercise during periods, cortisol level in your blood reduces and improves your period blues.

Exercising while on periods doesn’t mean Cross Fit or other high-intensity, unfamiliar workouts but go for exercises which are gentle:

• Brisk or gentle walking

• Light cardio or aerobic exercise

• Yoga and Pilates

Key points to remember:

• Listen to your body first

• Except high intensity workouts, do exercises you like. Even a few stretches will suffice.

• Focus on the benefits and exercising while on periods will be easier

• Make sure to pick the right period product based on the exercises you go for. For example, Lemme Be’s Menstrual Cup or Lemme Be’s Z Drip Max will help you during swimming.

• Do not go for inversion-type yoga poses

• Maintain period hygiene

Try not to cease activities, instead start exercising outdoor or indoor and gain more strength and power. Take care.
