- Is gigartina stellata extract safe while breastfeeding?

- Is gigartina stellata extract safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or dermatologic hazard in infants. Absorption/dermal bioavailability data for this algal extract are not available; as a large polysaccharide‑rich seaweed extract it is unlikely to be highly systemically absorbed in adults (h/e default 0), but because infant skin has higher permeability the exposure score is increased by +1 (per instructions) despite no specific infant data.
