My journey into cleaner living started with my cancer and autoimmune diagnoses more than 7 years ago. It’s really disheartening to see that so many companies use products they know harm our health.

Having a baby girl now makes it especially important for me to spread awareness of the dangers of #talc and how #toxic it is. That’s why I have teamed up with @truthabouttalc to let you know how you can protect yourself and the ones you love.

Did you know that #talc is a common ingredient in #babypowder and other hygiene products? Through my PhD, I’ve made it my mission to reduce the devastating impacts of gynecological cancers so I was shocked to learn that talc has been linked to ovarian cancer in more than 35 studies. Each year, talc is linked to 2,500 new cases of ovarian cancer, from which 1,500 women will lose their life.

I don’t need to tell you that baby powder has never landed on Mia’s cute little behind (yes even at NICU) and I pledge to have a #talcfree household. Making health my top priority played a big role in my recovery and I hope you join me to TOSS THE TALC! It is up to us to speak up and demand change! Friends, please sign and share the #tossthetalc petition in my bio and help us be heard!
