Once tattoo ink enters the body, it does not stay put. Beneath the skin, tattoo pigments interact with the immune system in ways scientists are only just beginning to understand.
Tattoos are generally considered safe, but growing scientific evidence suggests tattoo inks are not biologically inert. The key question is no longer whether tattoos introduce foreign substances into the body, but how toxic those substances might be and what that means for long-term health.
Well that is kind of a big deal lol. You may already know all this but celiac causes malnutrition as well as direct symptoms.
Iron deficiency from gut malabsorption can cause pretty significant fatigue, malaise, mood issues, and other problems. The criteria for determining what is considered iron deficiency have recently changed as well so that a LOT more people are considered deficient compared to before, and not all docs are up to date yet. Assuming you’re an otherwise healthy person, you’d probably want to have a ferritin (iron stores) of at least 50 ng/mL but ideally around 100 ng/mL if you’re symptomatic. There are several other vitamins that are commonly deficient in celiac as well.
Naa man… it’s the tattoos lol
This article needs to die, it was a shit study and on mice no less.
tbf there does seem to be some immune system weirdness with tattoos and if you’re already in a higher than normal inflammatory state because you have an untreated autoimmune disease like celiac, maybe it could make you feel like shit at least in the short term. idk

%100 can see that, but these articles keep coming up like they’ve nailed down that people with tattoos are more sick than people without. Which is a correlation doesn’t equate cause…and everyone is running with it now.
