>Johnson & Johnson Lead Scientist and Executive Admit Baby Powder Contained 'Cancer-Causing Heavy Metals'
i watched the video
the guy "spilling the beans" is NOT a "scientist"
nor is he an "executive"
he speaks like a lower middle-management clod
now….
can we apply a TINY modicum of common sense?
if talcum powder "causes cancer," WHERE are the hundreds of millions of cases of cancer?
people have been slathering their infants with it ten times per day for over a century
where are all the childhood cancers?
b… b… b… they found asbestos in talcum powder
FFS, read a damned book
talc IS asbestos
asbesto IS talc
the formula of talc is Mg3Si4O10(OH)2
the formula of the most common asbestos is Mg6Si4O10(OH)8
they are BOTH hydrated magnesium silicates
furthermore, asbestos is used as the name of a FAMILY of closely related minerals
some forms have an iron atom (NOT TOXIC) incorporated
some forms have a calcium atom (NOT TOXIC) incorporated
some forms have a sodium atom (NOT TOXIC) incorporated
some forms have a combination of Fe, Ca. and/or Na
and NONE of them are chemically carcinogenic
they DO differ in their gross morphology
some are amorphous fibers, some are more crystalline
and ONLY ONE form of asbestos has even the sketchiest causal relationship to lung cancer
and THAT form has not been used ANYWHERE for the better part of a century
the entire asbestos scare was A HOAX
what did they gain?
a half trillion dollars of taxpayer money was spent on NEEDLESS asbestos "abatement"
which in most cases release MORE asbestos into the air than if they had simply left it in place
and asbestos IS UBIQUITOUS
it's in essentially EVERY stone you see on the ground
go to the peak of mt everest and sample the air, and you will find MORE airborne asbestos particles than in any public school bldg
it OUGHT to be common sense that breathing high concentrations of aerosol DUST for DECADES is not going to be good for anyone
some people will get emphysema
some will get COPD
some will get chronic bronchitis
and those that have a genetic predisposition to cancer may get cancer
did you know that men who work in graneries and flour mills also get lung cancer from breathing flour dust?
it even has a name, it's called "white lung"
DOES ANYONE BELIEVE FLOUR IS CARCINOGENIC?
the "allegation" that talcum powder is contaminted with heavy metals is new
and it's just that…. AN ALLEGATION
not one iota of experimental evidence is provided
just the word of a disgruntled schlub
when will dumbfucks stop falling for the latest fear porn pusher?
