Glyceryl Palmitate Lactate is used in cosmetics for its ability to moisturize and soften the skin. This is why it can be found in numerous products such as body creams, lotions, oils, face masks and lip balms. Thanks to its properties, it also improves the texture of cosmetic products and increases their stability. In food production, it is used as an emulsifier, which contributes to a better consistency of food, improves its appearance and promotes long-term shelf life. It can therefore be found, for example, in bakery products, dairy products, fat emulsions, but also in some types of confectionery. Even though Glyceryl Palmitate Lactate is considered safe, there are a number of studies investigating its potential effect on the human body. For example, high intakes of it can lead to a rise in blood cholesterol levels.
