Safety Risk Labels

This ingredient has the following documented risks:

Immune system: Amylase is a protein enzyme that can act as an allergen; EFSA and other regulators note it can cause allergic sensitization and rare food allergies. In susceptible infants this could trigger immune-mediated reactions (hives, swelling, anaphylaxis).
Asthma: Occupational exposure to amylase (baker’s asthma) is a well-documented cause of allergic inhalation asthma in workers. While ingestion in baked goods largely inactivates the enzyme, inhalation exposure can worsen or trigger breathing problems.
Irritant: Enzyme proteins including amylase have been associated with skin sensitization and contact dermatitis in occupational settings; allergic skin reactions (redness, rashes) have been reported in sensitized individuals.
