Traces Of Benzene That Causes Cancer Found In J&J Sunscreens

Johnson & Johnson (J&J) on July 14 said it will recall five of its sunscreen products after benzene, a cancer-causing agent, was detected in its samples. "We voluntarily decided to recall them out of an abundance of caution," J&J said in a statement. Investigations are underway to find out how these chemicals were used in the products. Meanwhile, J&J has requested to stop the usage of the five sunscreens immediately.
