IMO.....I think we have been consuming lead for many years in the form of lipstick, toys etc. but now the media seems to think it is a big deal, I am not to concerned, maybe I should be, I don’t know.
Woohoo! Explains why American women are by and large insane.
Explains a lot.
Note to self: Don’t eat lipstick while pregnant.
Here come the blonde jokes..
I call BS. Just another LOSER scientist type looking for funding by making a controversial “research” paper.
Watching Ken Burns "The War" documentary, it featured a girl whose mom saved some lipstick for when they were rescued. They had eaten all the rest.
actually this is not a big deal. most of the women that use lots of lipstick don’t have any neurons left for lead to dull anyway!
Surely lipstick components are far more likely to be ingested by the user, being customarily applied on the edges of the oral orifice, than is the lead contained in Boy Scout badges. I doubt that any Boy Scouts lick or eat their badges or insignia. Yet there were “news” reports of a massive “recall” of Boy Scout paraphernalia said to contain traces of the fearsome lead.
Go figure!!
>US Food and Drug Administrations 0.1 ppm limit for lead in candy...
The worst they found was only 6.5 times the candy limit. How many people ingest more lipstick than 1/6 the amount of candy that is typically eaten?
