The Washington Post published
this article today about possible carcinogens in a number of infant care products that many of us have come to trust.
From this article:
"More than half the baby shampoo, lotion and other infant care products analyzed by a health advocacy group were found to contain trace amounts of two chemicals that are believed to cause cancer, the organization said yesterday."
and
"'Our intention is not to alarm parents, but to inform parents that products that claim to be gentle and pure are contaminated with carcinogens, which is completely unnecessary,' said Stacy Malkan, a spokeswoman for the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, which is calling for the government to more strictly regulate personal care products such as shampoo, lotion and makeup."
The Cradle's recommendation: Please review the article and take any precautions that you deem necessary.
