The Dangers Behind Talcum Powder

Talcum powder comes from a mineral called Talc, which is composed of magnesium and oxygen. However, many forms of talc from various suppliers and companies have been found to contain asbestos, a highly toxic material that has been strongly linked to cancer development.

One of the largest producers of talc, Johnson & Johnson®, had conducted a study on their own talc mine, only to find that two types of asbestos fibers were clearly present in the talc mine. As of May 2020, Johnson & Johnson® will stop all sales of their talcum powder in the United States and Canada.

Each year, millions of consumers use talcum-based products for various purposes. Now, consumers are holding multi-billion dollar companies such as Johnson & Johnson® accountable for failing to warn the public of asbestos contamination in baby powder.
