  Daily intake in children¹

  In some children, eating sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate in bread and baked goods may add up to more than the recommended daily limit.

The signal at the top counts the findings in people and in animal and lab studies. A concern in studies of people outranks animal and lab studies, and “No concerns” needs at least one finding in people. When most findings in people point one way, the page leans that way (“Mostly”), and every finding is still shown. Findings whose study type is not stated are shown but not counted.
