Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.
Caffeine is a natural stimulant found in coffee, tea, chocolate, and many sodas and energy drinks. It is also added to some medications and supplements. Under California Proposition 65, caffeine is listed as a developmental toxicant when consumed in amounts exceeding 300 milligrams per day. This means that high daily intake during pregnancy may pose a risk to fetal development. The listing is based on scientific evidence that very high doses can affect growth or cause other developmental issues. It is important to note that moderate consumption—typically under 300 mg per day, or about two to three cups of coffee—is not covered by this warning. The regulation focuses on consistent, high-level intake, not occasional use. For reference, a typical 8-ounce cup of coffee contains around 95 mg of caffeine. This summary draws on public regulatory data from the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) Proposition 65 list; the linked source is authoritative.
Safrole is a natural chemical found in sassafras oil, camphor, and other plant essences. It has a spicy, sweet scent and was once used in cosmetics and oral care products. However, the European Union regulates safrole strictly because it is classified as a possible human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Under EU Cosmetic Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, safrole is banned as an added ingredient in cosmetics. The only exception is when it occurs naturally in essential oils used as fragrances, and even then, the concentration must be very low: no more than 100 parts per million (ppm) in finished cosmetic products, and no more than 50 ppm in dental or oral hygiene products. Additionally, safrole is not allowed at all in toothpastes made for children. This rule helps protect consumers from unnecessary exposure to a potentially harmful substance while still allowing traditional natural scents in safe amounts.
