Hi Phil Geis,
And you don't agree with this? Triclosan has always been controversial and the Health Canada had already limited the amounts that can be put in cosmetic products, mouth wash etc. But with this preliminary report, there probably won't be a complete ban (as what happened with other endocrine disruptors like BPA or some of the pthalates). Have the FDA or the EPA released their own findings?

I offered this for information and if you read carefully you'll see I offered no opinion either way.
Why don't you find the information for us.
