I suppose the study and MP's are meaningless too.
Source Naturals PC doesn't appear to have MPs anymore.
Somebody might want to let the manufacturers know that on Amazon.

Hmm, just noticed Propylparaben, that one I didn't see before.
Ok, just so it's clear about parabens. (I used too, I had know idea what MP's were until I started to read the ingredients of the supplements I was taking).

Parabens, which are used as preservatives, may be listed on the label as methyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben, butyl paraben, isobutyl paraben or E216. They have shown particularly troubling links to cancer.
Studies have shown that parabens can affect your body much like estrogens, which can lead to diminished muscle mass, extra fat storage, and male gynecomastia (breast growth). Other studies have also linked parabens to breast cancer, as researchers found traces of parabens in every sample of tissue taken from 20 different breast tumors.
The EPA has linked methyl parabens in particular to metabolic, developmental, hormonal, and neurological disorders, as well as various cancers. (And yet we still have them in products).
Aqua, my apologies for the hijack.
Do a search a parabens, judge for yourself, if it's not something you want in your body, then check the labels, imo any amount is more than I need, we're already being assaulted by enough xenoestrogens.
Here's what I found :
