BERLIN— The German manufacturer of a notorious drug that caused thousands of babies to be born with shortened arms and legs, or no limbs at all, issued its first ever apology Friday — 50 years after pulling the drug off the market. Gruenenthal Group’s chief executive said the company wanted to apologize to mothers who took the drug during the 1950s and 1960s and to their children who suffered congenital birth defects [...] Women who use fake tan could put themselves at an increased risk of fertility problems and having babies with birth defects, according to experts. Although seen as a safe alternative to sunbeds, the products can contain a ‘cocktail’ of chemicals which may pose a risk to health – and can even cause cancer. Among the dangerous ingredients found in fake tan are hormone-disrupting compounds, which can affect the healthy development of babies.

Nail polishes commonly found in California salons and advertised as free of three specific chemicals called the ‘toxic trio’ have been tested by the Department of Toxic Substances Control.
