A suspected cause of Jackie Kennedy Onassis was Hair dye, especially dark hair dye.?

Did this proove to be a myth about her death of non- hodkins lymphoma

A suspected cause of Jackie Kennedy Onassis was Hair dye, especially dark hair dye.?
Use of hair dyes is not proven to cause Non Hodgkins Lymphpma





There is an apparent increase in non-Hodgkin lymphoma incidence in farming communities. Studies point to specific ingredients -- such as organochlorine, organophosphate and phenoxyacid compounds -- in herbicides and pesticides as being associated with lymphoma. However, the number of non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases caused by such exposures has not been defined.

Reply:I have also heard about hair dye and cancers/lymphoma. However, my mom has been dying her hair since she was 18 yrs. old and she's now 68 and still healthy! (Premature grey runs in our family and I've been coloring my hair for about 20 yrs. too). I would think Jackie O's cancer was somehow related to her heavy smoking habit, although she was considered a "secret smoker"--she hated people knowing she smoked and you'll hardly ever see a photograph of her with a cigarette!
