Is it dangerous to eat Johnson's pure cornstarch baby powder?

# I don't think it harms you as much as talc powder because if you eat baby powder or any powder containing talc then you can get cancer or you can have breathing problems, but pure cornstarch can't harm you that much but on all baby powder bottles or any powder bottles it says that it can cause you breathing problems and believe me im13 and i was eating baby powder on and off for 1 year now and sometimes i can't breath.so just try to stop that's what im doing i didn't eat none in like 2 weeks and sometimes i want to eat some but i stop myself. it's pretty hard but you just got to stop and if you want to cure this then just go to the doctor and get a check up so you can make sure nothings wrong with you.
