Is it talc or asbestos?

"Cosmetic talc verdicts awarded billions to plaintiffs with ovarian cancer or mesothelioma over the past year. In all cases, the plaintiffs say regular talcum powder use (which contains cosmetic talc) led them to develop terminal cancer. However, some plaintiffs say asbestos (not cosmetic talc itself) may be the real culprit".

"Scientists published the first study linking talcum powder to ovarian cancer in 1971(J Obstet Gynaecol Br Commonw.). In the study, researchers dissected ovarian tumors and discovered talc particles embedded in 75% of them. Since then, dozens of different researchers validated that first study’s results. This includes a 2013 case-control study stating regular perineal talc use increased women’s ovarian cancer risk by 33%.(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3766843/)

But the FDA believes some study parameters may have flaws. As a result, they funded their own cosmetic talc study in 2017. The agency should publish the study’s results sometime in spring 2019".
