Yoga Mat Chemical, FDA Review of Azodicarbonamide
The FDA is reviewing the use of azodicarbonamide (ADA), a chemical used in yoga mats that is also a common dough conditioner in US bread. While banned in Europe due to its breakdown into potential carcinogens like semicarbazide, it remains legal in the US as a bleaching agent and volumizer. Major chains like Subway and Wendy's have previously pledged to remove the ingredient from their products.
