How natural are you?

[Mojooo]

Right now - what have you go on or in your body that wouldn't be there naturally.

Include anything and everything inc hair dye, jewellery, medicines, tattoos, deodorant, aftershave, other cosmetics, glasses, hearing aids etc
Exclude food as we all need it.

For me:

I have multiple fillings/crowns
I have some metal screws in my knees to hold in place an ACL repair (and also a part of my hamstring is in my knee joint)
Various vaccinations

I also had a circumcision so a part of me is gone!

Who is the most pure amongst us?

[Tyre Tread]

Glasses and fillings.

That is all

[x5tuu]

No tattoos
No fillings or dental work / all my own teeth
No piercings or implants
No hearing aids or visual aids
No regular medication
Little hair left of my head so no hair dye (although used to bleach it when I was in my teens / twenties)
“Uncut”

Had lots of vaccines - travel and general health

Had a number of carcinomas removed in the past 10yrs though so lots of little pieces of me removed

[WelshPetrolhead]

I'm full of chemicals suppressing my immune system to treat Crohn's Disease, and I wear glasses.

[Silvanus]

Bit of dental work and a very small tattoo, that is all.

[dudleybloke]

A plate and 9 screws in my left wrist.

[WrekinCrew]

About half the nitrogen in everyone's body got there via the Haber Bosch industrial process (atmospheric nitrogen -> ammonia -> fertiliser -> food protein).

[colin_p]

Defib / pacermaker. (ICD)

Keeps me among the living like any self respective cyborg.

[Pebbles167]

Bit of spinal scaffolding, various others in the wrists and ankle, but this is the biggest.



I wonder what they do with it after cremation, chuck it on the pile to be weighed in?

[BoRED S2upid]

Glasses and iwatch.

Quite a cool keepsake for someone after your gone

[Pistom]

I was due to have quite a bit done following a serious accident.

Barely alive but the surgeons believed they had the technology.

To rebuild me.

To make me better, stronger, faster.

But then austerity came along and they said fk him.

[ChocolateFrog]

Plenty of metal in my knee along with a couple of achilles tendons that originally belonged to one of Peppa's mates and some old rope from the first attempted fix.

[OMITN]

Three titanium plates holding an eye socket together (hockey ball)
Glasses
Paracetamol (currently have covid)
Clothes (which none of you animals have listed..!)

[ClaphamGT3]

A number of fillings, glasses, some screws and plates in one of my patellae, a watch and a hole for a nipple piercing (though I very rarely put any jewellery in it these days)

[bigpriest]

Fillings, medication and 2 stents in coronary arteries - also had a lump of collagen to seal the hole in my thigh where the artery was accessed, but that's been absorbed. Must be millions of evil particles breathed into my lungs over the years from traffic, smoking etc., are they "natural"?

[K87]

No tattoos

No hair colouring to my full head of hair

Teeth fillings

Nothing else, and I am very old. People say that I look younger than a friend of mine who is 15 years younger.

My two pieces of advice is cut right back on drinking and moisturise twice a day, 5ml minimum on your face.

Not to mention the microplastics

My Dad had some metalwork in his arm after nasty motorbike crash. I mentioned that I’d like it when he’d finished with it and - ever practical - he recommended removal before cremation, to keep it in good nick. Of course, come the time I forgot all about this and I guess it just ended up rattling around in the crenulator.

[InitialDave]

I've got several dental fillings.

I wear glasses, and I'm wearing deodorant.

Haven't checked my clothes but I'd imagine there's some artificial fibres in there.

Had lots of vaccinations, but I'm not sure those count as the vaccinations themselves shouldn't be present anymore, but I take some medications daily that are probably floating around in there.
