    Toxins like lead, mercury, DDT and many others that as you say are continually concentrated all the way up the food chain until they reach the apex predator which is often us. Nano and more usually microplastics are small particles that might break down into toxins eventually but for the moment would need to be ingested directly. Most of them wouldn't be in the meat we eat because they would still be in the intestines and lungs of the animal, not in its flesh.
