May cause moderate eye irritation, mouth, throat and stomach irritation, or drying/defatting of skin. So, has a moderate effect on human health. Not surprising, since just like any product of chemical production, should be handled carefully, considering that direct irritation with human body will have rather negative, though, in this case, not severe damage.

Personal Care
Pampers Baby Dry Diapers Size 4, 22-37 lbs
Product Category: Personal Care » Babies & Kids » diapers
Manufacturer: Procter & Gamble Co. No information regarding effect on health is provided by the manufacturer of this product. No wonder – what company would tell if a product for babies is dangerous? So, we never know… That is sad. If the product was absolutely safe, they would, I believe, directly write it on the packaging.

Home Maintenance

his product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Harmful if swallowed. Contains: ethylene glycol. May cause eye, nose and throat irritation. Vapor odors may cause irritation in the upper and lower respiratory tracts, nausea, headaches, and dizziness. Available toxicology, chemical and physical data show that overexposure is unlikely to aggravate any medical condition.
And thought this product is known to cause cancer and birth defects, what I wonder is why such products are still on the market!?!?

Well, here is where I get surprised. Considering it contains certain chemicals, I wonder how it has totally no effect on human health. Or we just arent’ told about it: “No information provided by manufacturer”?????
