Johnson and Johnson baby powder does in fact cause cancer: Throw it out of your house guys. Especially if you have baby girls: DOES BABY POWDER CAUSE CANCER? A class action suit claims that Johnson & Johnsons baby powder, used in the genital area, causes a 33 percent increased risk of ovarian cancer. |= At issue is talc, the main ingredient in baby powder. Talc is a hydrous magnesium silicate, an inorganic material mined from the earth. There are talc mines throughout the United States. Talc is number 1, the softest mineral on the 1 to 10 Mohs scale of mineral hardness. As numerous studies have confirmed Baby Powder leads to a significant increased risk of ovarian cancer. Women who used talc-based powders to powder their genital area have a 33 percent increased risk of ovarian cancer compared to those women who never used the powders. As early as 1982 there has been scientific evidence linking ovarian cancer and perineal use of talcum powder. In October 2013, a South Dakota federal court found that Johnson & Johnson caused a womans ovarian cancer and was negligent in failing to warn about the dangers of its talc-based baby powders. Three additional lawsuits have been filed since January 2014 this year, claiming that Baby Powder gave the plaintiffs ovarian cancer.
