I have some disturbing news. According to the CoA sent to me by the seller (alt link), the product is more palmitic acid (C16) than it is stearic acid (C18). I have independently notified the seller, Amazon, USP, and the FDA. 5016 NF-FG and 5016 NF-EXT are apparently both about half palmitic. You may wish to consider adding an appropriate review for the product.

I have now posted a new question for that product for its seller. Let's see if I get an answer. There was a preexisting answered question there from 2016 asking to use it as food.
