Full Version: Tattooing probably is not the best and healthiest thing you can do to yourself

According to new research, a tattoo causes permanent inflammation and aggression on the immune system. Ink manufacturers are not regulated and are not monitored or bound to any specifications in the US/Canada. They don't even have to share their ingredients with anyone at all. A large number of popular, widely used inks in the US are actually banned outside of the US because of known carcinogens being tested in the inks. In Europe, at least, they do have some regulations and test these inks. The vast majority of reputable tattoo studios in the UK only use Fusion or Eternal ink, which both use organic pigments.

With some off-brand ink, you're probably looking at a 15% reduction in kidney function. However, a lot of what we experience in our day-to-day lives isn't "safe". There's titanium dioxide in condiments, asbestos still in buildings, preservatives with barely a decade of research behind them that are used in processed foods, and every single one of us has some form of microplastics in our blood or digestive system. Toilet paper is even bad for you because of the chemicals and bleaches they use. Researchers asked toilet paper companies for a list of ingredients they use, but they refused to give it to them. Some clothes are bad for you because of the dyes. We would need to change the formulas of literally everything if we wanted a healthier society, but I won’t hold my breath on that.
