nail polish and nail polish remover are both very harmful. thats why if you use them as household inhalants, you can pass out, and even go into a coma.
maybe you should try bying this type ofclear nail polish that goes on top of reagular colored nail polish. it tastes really bad, so youll stop

yes it can be very harmful
nail polish contains alot of toxins and can be very dangerous if you ingest that much

are you actually EATING the nail polish once it's pulled off your nail? If so, there's a disorder for that called PICA. Most commonly it is suspected that emotional disturbance and deficiencies of iron or zinc may lead to this condition.
Getting stomach cancer or another disease is probably just something she tells you to scare you so you'll stop doing it. If you are EATING it, then you are toxicating your blood though. (according to the many websites I found about this)
