Frequently asked questions
- Is fructose safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or local hazard to infants from fructose. Fructose is highly hydrophilic and not expected to penetrate skin substantially in adults (negligible exposure), but infant skin has a less mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio, so dermal exposure is considered low but measurable for babies (exposure score +1) (sources: PubChem/CosIng, general dermal absorption principles cited in regulatory guidance).
- Is fructose safe for newborns?

Fructose is highly hydrophilic and not expected to penetrate skin substantially in adults (negligible exposure), but infant skin has a less mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio, so dermal exposure is considered low but measurable for babies (exposure score +1) (sources: PubChem/CosIng, general dermal absorption principles cited in regulatory guidance).
