Comment on Is this potentially harmful substance lurking in YOUR nutritional supplements? by Karen Eiles.

I’ve just finished reading this article.

I’ve started taking a supplement in preparation for pregnancy and now see that it contains stearic acid.

I believed it was a high quality supplement (Lamberts StrongStart) bought from a local health store. The supplement was not cheap – I was working on the basis that you get what you pay for!

I’m at a loss to know where to start looking for a replacement. Can you recommend a company known for their high quality supplements – I appreciate you can’t recommend a specific supplement.

Thanks again for the article and bringing these matters into the public domain.

I agree.

I like the fact the report is very balanced -Sarah thank you for just presenting us with the facts and not judging. But having read through the comments, I see some are very quick to judge, to go beyond the facts to put their own bias on them.
