Listen "Ep 30: It's Not Just Asbestos"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I'm connecting the dots on a critical, game-changing update about talc. This isn't just about the J&J asbestos lawsuits anymore, it's about a new EU classification that's banning the talc mineral itself.There is a massive regulatory gap here, and it highlights a hard truth: we have to be our own regulators. I'm breaking down the recent $1 billion lawsuit, the EU's position on talc in cosmetics, and why "asbestos-free" is not it. I also share what to look for on labels and how to make sure this presumed carcinogen is NOT in your makeup bag.
