Dr. Paul Savage, CEO
of MDLifespan, has been committed to removing plastic from
people's body, is now pledging to remove plastic from our vital
ecosystems by June 2025
CHICAGO, June 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of
NOAA's Ocean Month, MDLifespan is proud to announce a
groundbreaking partnership with 4ocean, an organization dedicated
to removing plastic waste from the world's oceans, rivers, and
coastlines. As a Certified Cleanup Partner, MDLifespan commits to
pulling 10,000 pounds of plastic from our vital ecosystems by
June 2025.
Dr. Paul Savage, CEO of
MDLifespan, a precision medicine clinic located in Chicago, emphasizes the urgent need for this
initiative: "We've neglected our
planet, but we're ready to change that! We're thrilled to partner
with 4ocean to remove 10,000 pounds of plastic from our oceans. A
cleaner planet means better health for everyone."
WHY This Matters: Plastic pollution isn't just an
environmental crisis; it's a human health crisis. Microplastics
pose a dire threat as they invade our bodies through food and air,
causing severe inflammation, toxic reactions, and catastrophic
disruptions to vital biological functions. One major pathway for
these microplastics into our bodies is through plastic pollution in
the ocean, which is ingested by marine wildlife and then
transferred to humans when we consume seafood.
When consumed these microplastics leach into body tissue
and cause harmful health effects. Recent studies have linked
microplastics to heart disease and infertility issues.
MDLifespan's Commitment to
Health: MDLifespan's PlasmaXchange protocol
is showing great promise at removing microplastics from the body,
addressing the critical health issues they cause. This partnership
with 4ocean amplifies our commitment to not only clean the
environment but also safeguard public health. MDLifespan is on a
mission to remove toxins from the body, but they are also
supporting organizations to remove toxins and plastics from the
source.
4ocean's Track Record: Since its inception in 2017,
4ocean has been combating ocean plastic pollution. Their
professional, full-time captains and crews have removed over 29
million pounds of plastic waste and other man-made debris from our
oceans and coastlines.
Ryan Dick, Brand Partnership
Representative for 4ocean, believes this partnership is a perfect
synergy: "We're thrilled to team
up with MDLifespan! Their mission to eliminate microplastics from
the body aligns perfectly with our goal to end plastic pollution.
Together, we're a powerful force for change."
Global and Local Impact: The theme for World Oceans
Day 2024, "Waves of Change: Collective Actions for the Ocean,"
underscores the importance of collaborative efforts in addressing
ocean challenges. Through this partnership, MDLifespan and 4ocean
address a critical environmental issue while promoting a healthier
planet and population.
Plastic pollution is a pressing issue. Since the 1950s, the
world has produced an estimated 18.3 trillion pounds of plastic,
with less than 10% being recycled and 79% accumulating in the
environment. The World Economic Forum predicts that global plastic
production will triple by 2050. The damage from plastic pollution
extends beyond the environment, posing threats to the global
economy, food supply, and societal health. Ocean-based industries,
such as fishing and tourism, employ billions of people and
contribute trillions to the global economy. With more than 3
billion people relying on seafood as a primary source of protein,
our global food supply is at risk due to increased pollution.
Call to Action: We invite you to delve into this
critical topic and help spread the word about the importance of
toxin level testing and awareness of microplastic exposure. Your
coverage can drive meaningful change, encouraging consumers to take
proactive steps in protecting their health.

healthier future for all.
