Weird take, but blood-letting is a treatment against microplastics. As is menstruation and donating blood, but the first one is more medieval.

To be clear: the historical treatment for too much black bile (melancholic) is to shit it out with laxatives.

That’s a treadmill. You have to eat and drink more micro plastics to replace the lost blood. Bloodletting was the opposite you wanted to do with melancholic illness btw. You wanted to increase sanguine humor so you ate and drank sanguine foods while taking laxatives.
