IARC is not a regulatory body, and its categories do not address disease risk.

Maybe FDA got this right. I bet you dollars to donuts that putting TiO2 on your skin reduces the risk of cancer.

    The FDA... Which doesn't do it's own studies and trusts the study results of the manufacturers who want to sell their products?
