How is Talc Causing Cancer?
Since Talcum Powder is made from tiny particles of the natural mineral called talc, they cause inflammation and it is difficult for the body to remove them.
A tumor can develop where these particles settle and become stuck in the body. The particles build up over time with regular use as a feminine hygiene product.
Minuscule particles may find their way into the body of a woman through her reproductive system and become embedded within the ovaries. The particles can remain in the body for years, even after Talcum Powder use is discontinued.
These particles can cause inflammation in the ovaries and allow cancer cells to form, grow and spread.
