Ask The Doc! Cancer

Dr. William Whaley sits down with BKP and answers the following questions on cancer.

1) I saw many commercials over the football weekend about talcum powder causing ovarian cancer. I recall you saying the risk was tiny to non existent but I heard talcum powder had asbestos in it and you previously said asbestos causes lung cancer. What is the truth?

2) The Atlanta newspaper said that lung cancer was not as bad as it once was. Is there something new that I have not heard of before?
