Will the addition of EDTA disodium in cosmetics affect the results of heavy metal testing?

 

Everyone is eager to use safe cosmetics, so they are very concerned about the presence of heavy metals in daily cosmetics. Because heavy metals are a substance that is difficult to biodegrade, they can aggregate under the amplification of organisms. Once they enter the human body, heavy metals can interact strongly with proteins, enzymes, and other substances, ultimately accumulating in certain organs of the human body, leading to chronic poisoning.

 

EDTA disodium is a commonly used raw material in cosmetics that can chelate metal ions. Many consumers may have doubts that cosmetics containing EDTA disodium are considered to have excessive heavy metals. To address this issue, we can actually think about it in a different way. If a manufacturer has indeed added heavy metals due to certain effects, why do they need to add EDTA disodium to control the heavy metal composition? This itself is a contradictory issue. In practice, during the inspection by the quality inspection department, a type of nitric acid is used for digestion. No matter how chelating agents are added, the heavy metal components are nowhere to escape and will not affect the results of the heavy metal inspection.

 

Although the cosmetic ingredient EDTA disodium is not perfect, it also has an unshakable position in cosmetics. As one of the ingredients with a long history of use in cosmetics, there is no need to worry about its safety at a reasonable dosage. And there is strict control over the dosage of ingredients by the Cosmetics Raw Material Supervision Bureau, and the safety is beyond doubt. You can completely put your heart into it.
