Sustainability

What Sustainability Means to Vega
At Vega, they want to change the world. And changing the world starts with them. Their passion for plant-based nutrition is as much about empowering health as it is about supporting the health of the planet. But sustainability isn't just about what goes into their products-sustainability must be part of everything they do. They want to be a company that leaves a net zero carbon footprint. Come join them on their Journey to Zero.

Journey to Zero
It's one thing to say you want to be a company that leaves a net-zero carbon footprint. It's quite another to take real actions toward that goal. Journey to Zero is Vega's name for their process of taking actions and being accountable to this goal.

You can't improve what you don't measure. And because they mean business when it comes to the planet, they treat their carbon footprint as a real indicator of their performance. They started with a complete corporate environmental sustainability audit and used the results to create Vega's Sustainability Action Plan.

Every small change they make is a step on their Journey to Zero-and they take each of them so seriously that they've woven this process of making steps on this journey through the fabric of everything they do. Their ingredients, their packaging, their office, their suppliers-each of these represents an opportunity to innovate, improve, and bring them closer to their goal.

Ingredients
Vega's passion for clean, plant-based nutrition that's good for your body and fuels your healthy, active life isn't the only reason Vega products are exclusively plant-based-it's also a reflection of their commitment to the planet.

What you eat can make a bigger impact on the planet than any other choice you make.

Reducing your personal carbon footprint involves a whole lot more than just how big a car you drive on your morning commute. In fact, what you eat can make a bigger impact on the planet than any other choice you make.

Whole, plant-based foods provide far greater nutrition relative to their real production cost from seed-to-plate when compared to processed, non-plant-based options. Or, in the words of their formulator, Brendan Brazier, they have a significantly lower nutrient-to-resource and nutrient-to-emissions ratio.

Your carbon footprint shrinks with every plant-based meal you choose.

Reducing your impact on the planet is simple-just start with one (plant-based meal a day, that is). Whether you're dipping your toe into the Meatless Monday routine, or you're a card-carrying raw vegan localvore, every plant-based meal you choose makes a dent.

Packaging
Through their sustainability audits, they've identified packaging as their single largest source of CO2 emissions-in 2012, packaging materials accounted for 71% of Vega's total carbon footprint. Why? Because until then, like every other company in their industry, most of what they made at Vega came in a plastic bottle-bottles made from virgin HDPE plastic, derived from greenhouse-gas generating, non-renewable petroleum.

In 2013 they switched to 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic bottles. Vega was the first in their category to switch from virgin HDPE plastic bottles to 100% PCR plastic bottles. With this one step, over just one year Vega:

• Saved 278 tons of CO2 - 63% less CO2 greenhouse gas than virgin plastic. This much CO2 could fill 353 parade balloons, making a balloon-only parade 4 miles long.
• Diverted 233 tons of plastic from the waste stream. Made into Vega bottles stacked end-to-end, that's a stack 58 times the height of Mount Everest.
• Used 14,865 million BTUs less energy - 86% less energy than virgin plastic. That's enough energy saved to run 140 average detached single family homes in America for a year.

Plus, Vega's 100% PCR HDPE plastic bottles are still fully recyclable. There are no silver bullets in life, or on their Journey to Zero, but every choice they make matters. Vega lives their commitment to constant improvement by pursuing perfection, one small change at a time.

Vega Frequently Asked Questions

Can someone with diabetes eat Vega products?
This is a simple question with a not-so-simple answer, since every person living with diabetes has unique needs. Whether you have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes it's always best to work with to your health care practitioner to find out what foods fit into your individualized diet and personal activity level.

Why make Vega One organic?
Since the beginning of Vega, when what is now Vega One was launched (then called “Complete Whole Food Meal Replacement”) way back in 2004, we’ve been striving to make our top-selling product USDA Organic. While the name and formula of this flagship product have seen several iterations, this is the first time we’re able to make it completely USDA Organic. This is something our consumers have been asking for since day 1 in the fall of 2004, and we couldn’t be prouder of where we are today. There are several reasons you may want to choose organic, among them being improved water quality, energy conservation, increased biodiversity, and soil health.

Can someone who is pregnant take Vega products?
They always recommend you check with your healthcare practitioner on whether or not you personally should use Vega products while pregnant or breastfeeding. They'll have a better scope of your overall health and wellness goals, and whether you are introducing a new food or supplement into your routine or continuing your current intake. If you are aware of any sensitivities or allergies to any ingredients in Vega products, they definitely recommend avoiding that product-whether you are pregnant or not.

Can Vega One be used as a meal replacement?
Vega  One is a food—so you can enjoy it anytime you would eat other foods you love—meals, snacks or anywhere in between. Check the Nutrition Facts Panel to ensure that it has the amounts of macro and micronutrients that you are looking for.

Can Vega One help me lose weight?
Vega One is a nutrient dense food, so you can use it any way that you would use a food. You can enjoy it on its own or as a part of your favorite smoothie. You can even cook with it, making pancakes or muffins. Vega One tastes great, and offers 20 grams plant-based protein, veggies and greens, and 4 grams fiber in 150 calories.  If you’re trying to lose weight, consult your health care practitioner to know what’s right for you.

Is there caffeine in Vega One?
The approximate value (which may change based on natural variations in the plant-based ingredients):

• Vega One Chocolate flavor contains less than 1/10 mg of caffeine from cocoa powder per serving.
• Vega One Mocha flavor contains about 1 mg of caffeine from the flavor extraction process from coffee beans and chocolate 
  As reference, one 8 oz/250ml cup of coffee has between 75-200 mg of caffeine in it.

Can Vega products be mixed with dairy?
Being a plant-based company, Vega recommends non-dairy beverages such as almond, hemp, coconut, or rice milk with your favorite Vega product, but that doesn't mean you can't mix it with whatever you have in the fridge!

Why aren't the tubs full?
You may wonder why Vega isn't filling their tubs right to the top of the brim or why they don't make a smaller tub to fit the amount of the powder found inside. The truth is, when the tubs are filled, they're actually full. It's not until they've been sealed and shipped out to you that the powder begins to settle and become more compressed. Just like pillows, (or bag of chips) Vega protein powders settle, compress, and appear to not fill the tubs upon opening. But you can be guaranteed that every scoop still contains the nutrition you're looking for.

They strive to give you the knowledge and nutrition to help you be better on your own terms-one small change at a time. And they're rooting for you, every step along the way.

Who They Are
It takes a cup of vision, a scoop of determination, a pound of curiosity, an ounce of innovation, and a dash of serendipity to make their foodscape better, one small step at a time. Empowering the world to thrive might sound a little bombastic as a vision, but isn't one they take lightly-everything Vega does as a brand is sincerely driven by their four part mission:

The attitude, passion and dedication of Vegatopians is the secret to Vega's success. But don't just take their word for it -let Vegatopians show you.

How They Got Here
The key ingredients of vision, determination and serendipity combined when Brendan Brazier and Charles Chang founded Vega. As a professional triathlete, Brendan Brazier recognized that nutrition made good athletes, great. As he self-experimented with different diet types, he realized that clean, plant-based nutrition was the competitive advantage he needed. After meeting Sequel Naturals founder Charles Chang, Brendan pitched the concept of an all-in-one nutritional shake that did not compromise quality, nourishing ingredients for convenience. Just like that, Vega's first product-Whole Food Health Optimizer-was born. And that was just the beginning.

Since 2001, Vega has been groundbreakers in the plant-based natural health and performance products industry. From Whole Food Health Optimizer, they've expanded to create a range of clean, plant-based nutrition products to help you be better-on your own terms.

Where They're Going
Vega is proud to be recognized as one of the fastest growing-and best companies to work for-year after year. Vega's performance is driven by core values centered around integrity, passion, ownership, teamwork, goal setting, and sustainability. Their goal is to provide convenient plant-based products, made from real, whole food ingredients to support your health-without having a negative impact on the planet's health.
