Are fabric dyes dangerous? Are dyes that tend to bleed when washed more dangerous than dyes that don't bleed? Is the intensity of the bleeding of the color a factor we should consider when using a cloth? Are fabrics that tend to bleed profusely dangerous to our health? If the bleeding is associated with health problems, then are there certain categories of fabrics (for instance, silk) that tend to bind more strongly their dye molecules and therefore are less dangerous for our health???
