      They had lead in baby power at one point. I also think they did some unethical stuff with baby formula in South America but I might be wrong. Someone correct me!

        They are also accused of knowingly having asbestos in their baby powder. As to the baby formula, I know Nestle had a major scandal with that stuff, but I didn’t know about J&J doing similar.

          Correct asbestos. Women use baby powder with talc to keep things dry down under, this can cause cancer. You cannot remove asbestos from talc 100%. Don’t use or consume products with talc.

        I don’t think Johnson & Johnson has ever made baby formula.

        Do you tell your doctors not to use J&J products and medicine during surgery or when you go in for regular checkups and need medications?
