Talc-treated rice and Japanese stomach cancer.

R R Merliss.   

Abstract

The Japanese prefer talc-dusted rice in their diet. The incidence of stomach cancer in Japan is unusually high. Most talc has some asbestos contaminants. Epidemiologic evidence is presented that the asbestos-contaminated talc on rice in the diet is the carcinogen or cocarcinogen responsible for the high incidence of Japanese stomach cancer.
