I just read the article from pr newswire that was referenced which said, "Pharmaca may re-stock dietary supplements with bovine source material once we are assured the source is from a non-BSE infected country such as New Zealand," said Don Summerfield, VP of integrative medicine."

Sphingolin by Ecological Formulas uses cows from New Zealand according to my research.

When I was pregnant I was very anemic and the iron that was available was not working. I switched to a product by Standard Process Labs and I was no longer anemic(or constipated) as my body was able to absorb the iron. It contained bovine everything. Of course i did not know the risks then and I don't think I would have taken the chance with my son, but now it's just me.
