1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years), hydrolyzed quinoa protein used on the skin is generally safe. The known concerns are very low and problems reported in studies happened only at much higher doses than you would get from a lotion or cream.
If you want to use a product with this ingredient on your toddler: 1) Do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use, 2) Don’t put it on broken or inflamed skin, 3) Keep the product away from eyes and mouth, 4) Use the smallest amount needed and follow the product directions, 5) If your child has a known food or seed allergy, talk to your pediatrician first.
Although overall risk is low, some peer-reviewed animal studies showed circulatory, metabolic, or cellular changes but only at very high doses not typical for topical products. Rare skin reactions are possible — stop use and contact your pediatrician if you see redness, swelling, hives, or other signs of irritation. If your child has known quinoa, seed, or severe food allergies, avoid products with this ingredient unless advised by your child’s doctor.
