Low Plastic Intervention

Participants will be provided with food that contain no or low plastic and PAC. This is defined as minimally processed (according to NOVA Classification) fresh produce where the supply chain is either known to be free, or likely to be free of plastic contamination. Foods that are canned, pickled, use plastic storage containers will be either avoided or substituted where possible with glass. Participants will also follow guidance concerning the preparation of their food. Plastic utensils used in the preparation of food will be substituted for non-plastic. Commonly used personal care products, e.g., shampoo and soaps, and cleaning products will be replaced with no/low PAC alternatives. Participants will be supplied with a comprehensive schedule, and instructions for the 4-week intervention.
