J&J patented Baby Powder in the late 19th century.

A German scientist in the 1920s discovered asbestos in the talc. J&J denied, denied denied well into the 21st century.

HUGE $ for J&J.

J&J hid its own studies that linked their talcum powder with cervical cancer.

Only when J&J was forced to pay humongous fines for killing tens of thousands of women did it replace talcum with a corn starch product.

Most people spend more effort saving a few dollars at the supermarket than researching the drugs their doctors prescribe.
