Ditch Microplastics in Bottled Water With Owala, Yeti, and Stanley

Summer is fast approaching, and so are its heat waves. It’s important to stay hydrated, but recent research revealed that microplastics in bottled water may have long-term health effects. According to a 2025 study, ditching single-use plastic water bottles could reduce microplastic intake “from 90,000 to 4,000 particles per year.” Instead, use a reusable stainless steel or glass water bottle. You can also grab a tumbler or travel mug if you like sipping through a straw. We found 10 bottles starting at $17 to help reduce your microplastic intake, including an iconic Stanley cup, Owala FreeSip, and Yeti Rambler.
