About
Calcium Cyclamate is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Calcium cyclamate is a sodium cyclamate analog primarily used as a sweetener in food. Its use in cosmetics is limited and it has been subject to regulatory scrutiny in the EU — cyclamates were banned in food in the EU in 1969 following质疑 over potential bladder tumors in animal studies, though this finding remains debated. Not listed on EU cosmetic Annexes but use in cosmetics is uncommon.
Known concerns
- Banned as sweetener in EU food since 1969 due to animal study concerns
- Limited cosmetic use; primarily a food additive
