Why does the can say it can cause cancer? What is in it that can cause cancer? Thank you.

For any concern regarding these kinds of products consult the Safety Data Sheet (used to be called MSDS). Google "linseed oil MSDS". I see this product is listed as "Not classified as hazardous for health or environment". I've used this as a wood finishing product for years, often with bare hands. It is recommended that you have good ventilation. I do not have the label in front of me but my guess is that it says something like "known to cause cancer in the State of California"... and every product known to man probably fits in this category.

Does linseed oil have any sort of odor/smell while wet or after drying? Also, I have heard that the flaxseed oil you can find in stores will not fully polymerize but turn rancid overtime. How is this different? Thank you!

From the label of ingredients, there doesn't seem to be any reason for this product to harm you. So you probably could ingest it. However, I don't know why anyone would want to do so.

"Dihydroxyacetone can damage DNA and promote the development of cancers or malignancies." Not worth the risk in my opinion. Disappointed because it does seem to work well as a tanning cream. I've stopped using it.

Some companies have whipped up the idea that this is a bad ingredient. I would like to refer you to a website. Wellnessresearches.com on the subject. this should be informative. As far as the actual product goes...I love it.

I believe that if burned or consumed it will be harmful but lol no one is going to eat this thing you should be good I have been using it for a while and no i don't have cancer and no it will not absorb through your skin hope this helps.

No, honestly I can't see why this is an issue. The handle comes with a warning label that explains that it contains materials that IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA are considered to POSSIBLY cause cancer. They do that because of the amount of people that sue in California thinking that random materials caused their cancer. I wouldn't worry about it. The label is only there to prevent getting sued.

I would ask a vet about it's ingredients. Sometimes things that are natural and perfectly safe for humans can be poisonous for our pets.

Because California likes to slap warnings on just about everything. This teether is made from food grade silicone which is not a carcinogen. I have no idea how it would have come by the warning, but I'm not terribly concerned about it. Sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING causes cancer, and silicone is nowhere near the top of the list of my concerns. But hey, way to take a feature used to gain information about a product and turn it into a BS sanctimommy judgement. Kudos. Edit: maybe a better question would be WHY does this product have a prop 65 warning attached. That's actually a useful product question, and I'd be interested in the answer. :-p

The ingredient you have to particularly avoid is Sodium Laureth Sulfate! This is a chemical that has likelihood to cause cancer, according to scientists. Other than that, you can't totally avoid the sulfate stuff. There are bad sulfate and not-too-bad sulfate, you just have to be careful with really bad ones.

I am not certain, but on some research pages it does say it can increase skin cancer.

It contains plastic. All plastic can possibly cause cancer according to lawyers. Just don't lick the phone before each time you use it. Don't worry, you'll probably be long dead from a heart attack before this phone causes you cancer.

Not getting enough sleep can increase your risk for cancer too. Research from the 80's showed that artificial sweaters (like those in soda) cause cancer. 1/6 Americans smoke and we KNOW that causes cancer. I'll take my chances with the Ultra.

Holy cow! Why is there so much toxic crap in there?! Caramel color (suspected carcinogen), "flavor" (could be anything, including MSG), sodium benzoate (carcinogenic when combined with ascorbic acid). Yuck! No thanks.

It contains propylene glycol, which is an alcohol. You may want to Google this ingredient if it's a concern of yours.

I don't know. I don't know why it's being used either. I'd prefer if it wasn't used. I don't know if it should be a health concern.
