Frequently asked questions

Is punica granatum bark extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR safety assessment identifying reproductive hazard. Peer‑reviewed literature does not provide consistent animal or human evidence of teratogenicity for pomegranate bark extract; regulatory databases (PubChem/CosIng) list the ingredient but do not flag reproductive toxicity. Therefore default no‑hazard scoring is applied.
Is punica granatum bark extract safe while breastfeeding?
No regulatory harmonised classification or authoritative safety opinion indicating risk to lactation or breastfed infants, and no convincing published data showing transfer into milk or adverse effects in breastfed infants. Regulatory listings (CosIng, PubChem) do not identify breastfeeding concerns.
Is punica granatum bark extract safe for baby skin?
No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Dermal absorption for high‑molecular‑weight polyphenol‑rich plant extracts is generally low, but infant skin has higher permeability; per instructions, exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr skin when adult absorption is not zero but low. No infant‑specific hazard mechanism identified.
