Frequently asked questions
- Is panax ginseng extract safe for baby skin?
- No infant‑specific evidence that Panax ginseng extract is a reproductive or developmental toxicant; therefore hazard remains 0. The mechanistic/theoretical concern (phytoestrogenic activity of ginsenosides) is retained but not elevated for infants absent specific data. Exposure score increased by +1 versus adults because infant skin has higher absorption/surface‑area‑to‑weight, giving moderate exposure potential from topical products.
