I learned cutting fluid could be unhealthy. Anyone here have any

I understand the problem has been that soluble cutting oil tends to
drench the operator at waist level (on older machines which do not have
total enclosures). That led to a noted connection between cancer and
soluble oil.
I don't know of any link between neat cutting oil and medical
conditions, but it is an oil, so the usual hazards apply.
I have serious reservations about the current fashion for atomised mist
spray coolant, which I believe to be a real danger to the lungs and
possibly the eyes, nose and mouth. I have not seen any medical studies
on this, but atomised fluids of all sorts are generally a bad idea.
Just my opinion.
