Frequently asked questions
- Is hydrolyzed amaranth protein safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or infant‑specific toxicity. However, infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, so although adult dermal absorption is expected to be negligible for a hydrolyzed protein, exposure score is increased by +1 for babies to reflect slightly greater potential for measurable absorption/skin contact; no infant‑specific adverse data were found (CosIng; EWG; PubMed).
