Frequently asked questions
- Is hydrolyzed wheat gluten safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised C&L reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR reproductive flags found. CIR-type cosmetic safety assessments treat hydrolyzed wheat proteins/protein hydrolysates as safe as used and published literature relates to allergenicity rather than reproductive toxicity (PubMed/CIR). Large peptide/protein hydrolysates have negligible dermal systemic absorption in adults, so pregnancy hazard and mechanism not indicated.
- Is hydrolyzed wheat gluten safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of lactation/breastmilk transfer or reproductive endocrine activity in authoritative sources. Due to negligible systemic absorption from topical use in adults, breastfeeding exposure is expected to be negligible; primary concern remains topical allergenicity rather than systemic reproductive hazard.
- Is hydrolyzed wheat gluten safe for baby skin?
- No reproductive hazard or mechanism identified for infants. However, immature infant skin increases potential for some percutaneous exposure to peptides compared with adults, so exposure score is increased by +1; main issue for infants is potential for topical allergic/sensitisation reactions rather than developmental toxicity.
