I believe the issue with CNTs and asbestos is that once they're in your lungs, your body won't be able to break it down. This is literally made of flour.

I assume it's orders of magnitude better than asbestos obviously, since flour is organic and decomposes, but it still doesn't seem great. If the particulate is this small, it can probably get pretty deep into your lungs and just sit there for a while. I'm no expert, but I don't know what would decompose flour in your lungs, especially if it's going to get deeper being so light and tiny.

Like it's not asbestos, but it's also not air. So maybe nanopasta comes with an MSDS binder.

		Bakers have been around for a long time w/ plenty of exposure to airborne flour. I wonder if they tend to have lung issues like similar trades do.

This.

Asbestos is like having glass shards that are so sharp they keep damaging cells and never go away. Constant cellular repair statistically results in cancer.
