Titanium dioxide has many purposes in both food and product development.

The National Cancer Institute tested TiO₂ for possible carcinogenicity by the oral route of exposure by feeding rats and mice with TiO₂ (size not specified) at doses 25,000 or 50,000 ppm TiO₂ for 103 weeks. They concluded that TiO₂ was not carcinogenic.Also, the study with rats fed diets containing up to 5 % TiO₂ coated mica for 130 weeks showed no treatment-related carcinogenicity. Since the size and other TiO₂ properties were not specified or determined, we cannot generalize this conclusion and we have to take into account other possible outcomes of this scenario in different exposure conditions (other size/crystalline structure of TiO₂ etc.).

FDA guidelines:Americans are eating too much salt. So the FDA wants food manufacturers to cut back on sodium.  

As for titanium dioxide, the FDA approved titanium dioxide for use as a food additive in 1966. The last time the agency reviewed the additive’s safety, according to the Guardian, was in 1973.

Some consumer advocacy groups and health agencies — particularly, those at the Environmental Working Group — have been pushing federal officers at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reconsider their existing rules on the additive, which is commonly found in processed snacks and sweets.

Scientists analyzed research that examined how titanium dioxide nanoparticles interact with the brain for a 2015 review published in Nanoscale Research Letters. The researchers wrote: “Once the TiO2 NPs are translocated into the central nervous system through [certain] pathways, they may accumulate in the brain regions. For their slow elimination rates, those NPs could remain in the brain zones for a long period, and the Ti contents would gradually increase with repeated exposure.” After reviewing dozens of studies, the scientists concluded: “Long-term or chronic exposure to TiO2 nanoparticles could potentially lead to the gradually increased Ti contents in the brain, which may eventually induce impairments on the neurons and glial cells and lead to CNS dysfunction as a consequence.”
