On the site, this mom talks about DHA and ARA having been added to formula
in other countries:

"This DHA/ARA additive has been added to formula in Europe & Asia for almost
20 years. It's been proven safe there btw."

I'm assuming the sources for the DHA/ARA the same in Europe and Asia as they
are here.  (A search of the archives refers to Martek making the DHA from
fungus, and one reference to it being derived from eggs.  I hope I found
everything...)  Have they not had the issues appearing with the new
supplements we're having here? (Explosive diarrhea, etc?)

Thanks -

Morgan Kennedy Henderson, IBCLC
