No need to worry — the European Commission on Public Health tightly regulates nano-hydroxyapatite and has ruled it’s safe when used in oral cosmetic products at levels up to 29.5% in toothpaste (Cocoshine is 3%).
The EU’s Public Health branch proposes health legislation, implements decisions, and coordinates responses to challenges. It works in tandem with the European Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) — this entity provides independent, expert scientific advice on the safety of cosmetic ingredients and products, ensuring high consumer safety standards through rigorous scientific assessment and influencing EU cosmetic regulations and labeling requirements. By conducting thorough risk assessments and monitoring new scientific data, the SCCS protects consumers from potential health risks by making evidence-based recommendations that lead to restrictions or prohibitions of unsafe ingredients.
