Just thinking out loud: the colours of a tattoo are 'injected' subcutane, just under the skin, and are meant to stáy there. I think, if the colours/dyes would come into the bloodstream, a tattoo would slowly disappear..........Well, that doesn't happen. So I can't imagine tatto-dyes wondering around through your body.
