The history of asbestos use in products can be traced all of the way back to 3000 BC when asbestos fibers were used in ancient Egypt, Finland, and Persia for clothing, pottery, and insulation. The use of the dangerous mineral was continued through centuries. In fact, the National Cancer Institute states that up to 5,000 consumer products contained asbestos. And due to its fire-resistant, non-conductive qualities, advertisers happily promoted it as a “miracle mineral” despite its correlation with mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.
