āCarrageenan has been proven safe for human consumption; however, there has been significant confusion in the literature between CGN and the products of intentional acid-hydrolysis of CGN, which are degraded CGN (d-CGN) and poligeenan (PGN). In part, this confusion was due to the nomenclature used in early studies on CGN, where poligeenan was referred to as ādegraded carrageenanā (d-CGN) and ādegraded carrageenanā was simply referred to as carrageenan.
Although this nomenclature has been corrected, confusion still exists resulting in misinterpretation of data and the subsequent dissemination of incorrect information regarding the safe dietary use of CGN.ā (PMID: 29902080)
Several human and animal studies have contradicted claims that carrageenan is carcinogenic and demonstrated its safety. These studies found no link between carrageenan consumption and various health conditions, including cancer and digestive and reproductive disorders.
More recent studies have not been able to replicate research that previously suggested that carrageenan in food causes intestinal inflammation. (PMID: 24467586; PMID: 27424122)
