What is Carnuba Wax?

About Carnauba Wax

Carnauba wax is a natural wax obtained from the leaves of the carnauba palm tree and is used in various food and non-food products.

In the body, carnauba wax is not metabolized and is generally considered safe for consumption in small quantities. It passes through the digestive system without being absorbed into the bloodstream. As such, it is considered non-toxic and does not accumulate in the body.

From a health perspective, carnauba wax is regarded as safe for most people when consumed as a food additive. However, excessive consumption of products containing this wax is not advisable, as it may lead to digestive discomfort.
