Why do we find microplastics in humans but not other common substances (e.g. steel, wool, etc.)? I'm not too familiar with why this is happening

Specifically steel and wool are manufactured to be what they are. The process probably involves a step to remove micro plastics.

I think he meant the other way, why we humans wont have steel or wool in us
