A microplastics blood test is not the same thing as a personal health forecast.
The research is attention-grabbing, but a blood finding is not a personal health forecast. daygauge does not test for microplastics.
Is there a blood test for microplastics?
A 2022 study reported plastic particles in human blood samples, but this does not establish a simple consumer interpretation for individual health decisions.
What the research signal is
A widely cited 2022 paper reported detection and quantification of plastic particles in human whole blood samples.
That is a research finding. It does not mean a lifestyle app can estimate a person's blood microplastics level.
The interpretation problem
Testing can be sensitive to collection, lab methods and contamination controls.
Even when a result is valid, turning it into individual advice needs expertise and more evidence than an app can offer.
What daygauge does
daygauge does not test for microplastics and does not import lab results.
It does not infer hormones, fertility, disease risk or treatment actions from a microplastics result. If you want to track a related habit, such as filtering drinking water, you can log it in Quick Log and compare it with your sleep and heart readings.
