Drinking water has heavy metals. Does their baby powder have a dangerous amount of heavy metals? I don’t know by this article.

But one thing is funny - the ability to measure trace amounts of toxins is relatively recent, and the mark is somehow claiming that the baby powder from long ago was clean. Strange.

lol. The talc manufactures who got sued out of business must be thrilled to hear this.

I was covered with baby powder, and I turned out ok. I smelled good too!

“The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that parents avoid using baby powder because it poses a risk of respiratory problems, including breathing trouble and serious lung damage if inhaled. The small size of the particles makes it difficult to keep them out of the air while applying the powder. Zinc oxide-based ointments are a much safer alternative.”

Talc may be used in the processing of white rice as a buffing agent in the polishing stage.

Talc is used in the production of the materials that are widely used in the building interiors such as base content paints in wall coatings. Other areas that use talc to a great extent are organic agriculture, the food industry, cosmetics, and hygiene products such as baby powder and detergent powder.

Talc is sometimes used as an adulterant to illegal heroin, to expand volume and weight and thereby increase its street value. With intravenous use, it may lead to pulmonary talcosis, a granulomatous inflammation in the lungs.

I was dusted with baby powder as an infant, as were all of my brothers. In fact, all of the babies of that generation and other generations were as well. It had no ill side affects with any I know. Its an unjustified scare.
