It's what you get when you combine stearic acid (from animal fats,
coconut oil, palm oil, etc) with soribtol (found in many fruits) to
create an ester and water.
Suffice it to say that if you buy into the claims of the "chemical
free living" promoters and that both EU and US regulators are the
tools of "big chemical" you may wish to avoid it.  Like everything
else, if contains impurities or you consume or apply too much of
it, it can be harmful.
