No, talcum powder itself is harmless to humans, so it is also added to food, medicine and cosmetics to beautify the color and improve the taste or feel.
However, as talc is a natural ore, unfiltered natural talc powder may contain asbestos, which can be harmful to health when inhaled into the lungs, so it is not suitable for direct use. At present, the European Union requires all baby products and chemicals containing talcum powder to use filtered talc to avoid asbestos.

Under normal, reasonable and foreseeable conditions of use, it will not cause harm to human health.
Professor Li Qiong, former vice chairman of the National Technical Committee for the Standardization of Fragrances, Flavors and Cosmetics, said that talcum powder is widely used in various cosmetics, especially powdered cosmetics, and will not cause harm to human health under normal, reasonable and predictable use conditions according to the existing relevant regulations.
She said that as long as it is produced by regular manufacturers, purchased through formal channels, and strictly supervised and tested by national regulatory agencies, talcum powder products for cosmetics can be used with confidence without unnecessary panic.
Li Qiong said that in the natural environment, some talc and asbestos ore are mostly associated or symbiotic, and some industrial talc raw materials with insufficient purity are easy to mix into asbestos, and asbestos is a known carcinogen.
Therefore, talcum powder for cosmetics is a high-quality, high-purity cosmetic raw material that has been rigorously tested. The cosmetics testing standards issued by the regulatory authorities of various countries clearly require that "asbestos shall not be detected" in talcum powder used in cosmetics.

Harmful. Stone powder is closely related to asbestos, a potent carcinogen. Talcum powder particles have been shown to cause tumors in the ovaries and lungs of cancer patients. For nearly 30 years, scientists have been closely examining talcum powder particles and have discovered dangers similar to asbestos.
In 1973, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) responded to this evidence by drafting a resolution to limit the amount of asbestos fibers in cosmetic-grade talc.
However, no official decision has been made, and cosmetic-grade talcum powder remains exempt from federal** regulation. This idleness ignores the 1993 National Toxicology Project report, which found that cosmetic-grade talcum powder, which does not contain any asbestos fibers, caused tumors in animal study subjects.
Obviously, cosmetic-grade talcum powder, with or without asbestos fibers, is a carcinogen.
At present, there is no particularly clear scientific evidence to prove that talcum powder causes cancer. According to the observation of Europe and the United States, long-term use can cause cancer, such as some talcum powder wraps have this ingredient. Talcum powder itself is harmless to humans, so it is also added to food, medicine and cosmetics to beautify color and improve taste or feel. >>>More
