It’s not just the asbestos angle. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talc
> One of these, published in 1993, was a US National Toxicology Program report, which found that cosmetic grade talc containing no asbestos-like fibres was correlated with tumor formation in rats
- SigmundA 3y ago"rats forced to inhale talc for 6 hours a day, five days a week over at least 113 weeks." Thats a lot different than applying it to your body. If I inhale sand for 6 hours a day for 113 weeks I would not be surprised to get tumors as well, I still go to the beach. Most things around us we touch could cause tumors if we inhaled them constantly over time.
