The experiment was wrong for a number of reasons:for a start more henna was introduced to the mice than could ever
possibly be absorbed by the human body without actually eating a hell
of a lot of it.
Also, eating is about the only way that experiment would work: in it
they used liver cells, or an enzyme from the liver (Jeremy knows
which) as a catalyst. The only way you could ever get henna to react
with your liver is by eating tonnes of it, or trying to tattoo your
insides :)
SO rest assured, we're all totally safe!
