Pure Talc; What could go wrong? The stuff has disappeared from grocery store shelves. Like the teflon coated aluminum pans. Alzheimers and Aluminum aliterate and alumina-gate snuck out without even a litigate.
I read stories about the dangers of talc when Gilda Radner died. That’s why I switched to corn starch powder long ago. Now that they are saying the issue is with the asbestos in the talc, I hope they processed the corn starch far from the talc (thinking about the warning on non-nut products being processed on same machines as nuts).
I’ve seen, or rather unseen, other products disappearing from shelves as well. Even if all the users stopped using today, how long will the cancers and lawsuits go on?
Talcum powder is rock dust. Rock dust is not good for you. Admittedly rock dust with asbestos is worse… I’ve been using corn starch for decades on myself. Works great.
