Microplastics Entering Living Systems: Discovery Pathways, Experimental Evidence, and Global Responses
This review traces the discovery pathway of microplastics entering living systems, summarizes ecological and human evidence, evaluates potential health and ecological threats, and reviews policy responses in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, China, the European Union, and the United Nations, arguing for scientifically restrained but proactive exposure reduction, material substitution, standardized monitoring, and full-life-cycle governance.

The Relationship Between Obesity and the Gut Microbiota
Based on publicly searchable evidence from Nature, Science, Cell, Nature Medicine, Cell Metabolism, PNAS, WHO, and related sources, this review evaluates the scientific relationship between obesity and the gut microbiota, arguing that its value lies in explaining metabolic variability and improving long-term intervention precision rather than serving as a single weight-loss answer.

Copper Peptides in Anti-Hair-Loss Cosmetics: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Translational Boundaries
Based on searchable international literature, this article reviews the direct follicle-related evidence, mechanistic rationale, delivery limits, and regulatory boundaries of copper peptides in anti-hair-loss cosmetics, concluding that they are better positioned as supportive follicular-microenvironment actives than as substitutes for drug therapy.
