Is using Talc as a deodorant still dangerous?!


Question:

Is using Talc as a deodorant still dangerous?

I know talc is supposed to be very harmful if used on babies....but is it bad for us men if we use it on our armpits as a deodorant?


Answers:

It's perfectly safe as long as you don't inhale it. Since grownups can hold their breath, you're OK.
P.S. Women should not use it on their privates, underwearpants, or on pads, because it can travel up to the uterus, and is suspected of causing ovarian cancer.
P.P.S.If someone didn't find any info about talc being harmful to babies, they didn't do enough research.
