Description
After studies emphasized talc’s associated dangers, Johnson & Johnson finally produced its own baby powder without talc. Of course, the company’s cornstarch-based products could be tainted with talc at the factory level. For this reason, use any J&J’s baby and body powder products with caution. What You Can Do Researchers published the first study linking talcum powder to ovarian cancer in the early 1970s. A subsequent 1982 study headed by Harvard professor Dr. Daniel Cramer examined genital talcum powder use and ovarian cancer. Dr. Cramer’s study compared 215 women with ovarian cancer against a control group of 215 healthy subjects. The study concluded that women who used talcum powder had nearly twice the risk of developing ovarian cancer compared to non-users. Worse, those who sprinkled it on their genitals and sanitary pads had more than three times the relative cancer risk. Because Johnson & Johnson failed to warn consumers about potential talc dangers, thousands of women developed ovarian cancer. As a result, women are filing talcum powder lawsuits against the pharmaceutical giant. For the safest option, choose powders made with a talc-free formula for both you and your baby’s safety. The items on our list can provide all the benefits of traditional talcum powder products, but without the same risks.
