Frequently asked questions

Is brassica oleracea italica seed oil safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications or SCCS/CIR safety concerns identified for Brassica oleracea italica (broccoli) seed oil. Composition is primarily fatty acids and lipophilic constituents, with no peer-reviewed evidence of reproductive toxicity or endocrine activity for the oil itself (sources: ECHA Annex VI/no harmonised classification; PubChem; PubMed literature does not report reproductive hazard). Topical cosmetic use is expected to have negligible systemic absorption.
Is brassica oleracea italica seed oil safe while breastfeeding?
Same rationale as pregnancy: no evidence of reproductive or endocrine hazard, no mechanism of transfer described, and topical application is expected to give negligible maternal systemic exposure and therefore negligible exposure via breastmilk (sources: PubChem; PubMed; absence of harmonised CLP flags).
Is brassica oleracea italica seed oil safe for baby skin?
No evidence of developmental or pediatric-specific toxicity. Mechanistic data lacking. Dermal absorption for lipophilic seed oils is generally low, but infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and immature barrier — therefore exposure score increased by +1 relative to adult (adult e=0 → infant e=1). No infant-specific adverse effects reported in the literature or regulatory listings.
