Frequently asked questions

Is kaempferol safe for baby skin?
Infant‑specific reproductive evidence was not found (so hazard and mechanism are not increased beyond the adult assessment), but because kaempferol has measurable systemic bioactivity and is dermally absorbable, exposure for babies (0–3 yr) is higher due to immature barrier — exposure score increased by +1. No infant-specific toxicity studies were located. (See animal/mechanistic studies and absorption data).
