Has anybody heard of stearic acid? Google it. I'm sorry to blow your hippie noodles. I also nearly died a few times going plant based due to my insulin resistance drastically going down and not staying at a comsisrenr level and being a type 1 diabetic, it's not a good feeling nearly dying and having to waste all my life monitoring constantly on edge. Sorry that there is no one smart enough to creat an alternative to stearic acid.
