Baby Powder concerns

I just read in the news that a class action suit has been filed against J & J because it alleges the talc in the baby powder caused ovarian cancer in women who used over a prolonged period of time. It also states the connection of talc to ovarian cancer has not been proven. Anyway, baby powder is something used by some diaper users. Just for information.

"BABY POWDER" has been CORN STARCH for many years.

Talc has been known to cause problems.

Talc was taken out of surgical gloves decades ago because they caused granulomas.

There is a class action lawsuit against everything.

Lawyers suck. They will make millions, the affected individuals will get two dollars each.

I posted on this subject way back when, at:-

I never use powder. Just tons of sudocreme

I use it sometimes, not so much with my diapers as much as during the day because I sweat a lot down there and it keeps me dry. (With my diapers I use pink Baby Magic baby lotion). But I'll check the kind I use and see if it has talc, if so, will start using the corn starch kind from now on.

Sudacrem is my choice now too, Stevewet. It's smooth and spreads on easily. And better yet - it works.

There's lots of articles on talc now but hard to get reliable answers. The class action suit was filed in 2014 but just two months ago the award of $72M seems to have triggered some interest. No wonder! I doubt it will hold up in an appeal, but then who knows? Lots of things happening these days that were not predicted...

In today's world everything seems to have a lawsuit of some kind. I use powder very regularly and need to. As being a male it would be hard to get female body parts cancer. I'm not to concerned about it because it's probably a way for someone to get money. My opinion.
