L-Serine, CAS# 56-45-1, is a amino acid manufactured through fermentation, available as white powder. L-Serine is widely used as nutrition supplements. It is widely accepted as safe food additive in many countries.
L-Serine cause no side effects based on normal usage.
As L-Serine is widely known as safe, there is no limit on dosage of intake. However, we still recommend consumers to consult professionals before using large quantity of L-Serine for long period.
Special groups refer to newborns, children, pregnant and any other applicable vulnerable groups.
There is no evidence that L-Serine could have any negative effects on these vulnerable groups. It should be safe to use L-Serine in food for newborns and pregnant. However, we still recommend consumers to consult professionals before using large quantity of L-Serine for long period in food for newborns or pregnant.
Generally recognized as safe(GRAS) is a FDA designation that a specific substance or ingredient is generally considered safe by experts, and so is exempted from the usual Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) food additive tolerance requirements. L-Serine is considered safe by FDA according to existing data and granted GRAS status.
No breaking news or public health crises reported about L-Serine reported up to now.
