Study links Tide ingredient to cancer in lab rats

  Eyewitness NewsNEW YORK (WABC) -- Tide detergent may do more than just clean your clothes. It may also expose you to a cancer-causing chemical.

According to The New York Times, the detergent contains trace amounts of dioxane.

The Environmental Protection Agency finds that dioxane may cause cancer in lab rats.

Environmental and health advocacy groups have asked Procter and Gamble to change the formula.

Procter and Gamble says the amount of the chemical in Tide is well below the safety risk level.
