apple cider vinegar

⚠️4/10

For infants 6–12 months (babies, young infants), apple cider vinegar is not linked to cancer or long-term harm in safety listings, but because it is acidic it can sting, dry, or irritate baby skin. It is generally low risk for long-term toxicity, but still can cause uncomfortable skin reactions.

No Known Risk - A reputable ingredient-review source finds apple cider vinegar to have low concern for cancer, allergies/immune effects, and developmental or reproductive harm for topical use. No use restrictions or higher-level hazards were identified in the review. For most people, normal diluted topical use poses minimal health risk. People with very sensitive skin or open wounds should still use caution and dilute before applying, because any acid can irritate damaged skin.
