Hubby said that his asbestos abatement classes teach and warn there workers about asbestos in body powder. Hospitals warn new mothers not to use talc but to use cornstarch.i have also noticed make up companies have promoted mineral based powders . If you read your make up ingredients you will notice most are talc based. The government knew this concern about asbestos and cancer in 1920's and hid it in their records until the 60's . (My husband is one of the last generation of asbestos workers. )
Hubby' s statement to me" would the government lie?" I feel this situation is why there is so much cancer in our generation.....??
