Johnson & Johnson baby powder to stopped soon..!?
Johnson & Johnson baby powder has been accused of containing the cancer-causing mineral aspartase for a few years. Demands to ban this product continue. Meanwhile, Johnson & Johnson's baby powder has announced that it will stop selling it worldwide in 2023. With thousands of consumer cases filed over the past few years, such an announcement has now come. We have decided to switch to a corn flour-based baby powder product globally. The cornstarch-based powder is already sold in countries around the world.
The company has received about 38000 cases from consumers. However, J&J has denied these allegations and said that the powder is manufactured in a safe manner. However, it has also faced $3.5 billion in costs amid some earlier problems. Out of which 22 women were awarded more than 2 billion.
In 2020, Johnson & Johnson stopped selling its baby talc powder in the US and Canada. This has led to many legal challenges and many safety concerns have been released. As a result, the demand has decreased significantly.
A few years ago, India's drug regulator ordered two indian manufacturing plants of Johnson & Johnson to stop manufacturing baby powder following allegations that it contained a carcinogenic mineral. 
The leading American company, Johnson & Johnson, has been silent for so long, even though it already knew there was a problem with this talcum powder, according to a Reuters report. It is said that this company came to know about this several years ago but did not take proper action.
