"24 billion animals are used in the US supplement industry every year"

"24 billion animals are used in the US supplement industry every year"

Gelatin, Magnesium Stearate, Omega-3, Vitamin D3, Vitamin B12, Creatine, Collagen… the list goes on and on.


More than half of supplements contain animal-derived ingredients – and companies are not required to disclose them.

In fact, many US-based supplement brands use intentionally ambiguous wording, hiding the truth and misleading consumers on the origin of their ingredients.

We’re shedding light on the animal cruelty and environmental damage that fuels a highly-profitable industry – because nobody else is.

The United States dietary supplement industry kills an estimated 24 billion animals, while creating 1.8 billion plastic pill bottles of waste every year.

As consumers, we have the power to spark change, so we’re petitioning the FDA to implement more transparent regulations, which would mandate companies to disclose if their supplements contain animal byproducts.

We’re empowering fellow consumers so we can all make better, more informed decisions about what we’re purchasing and putting in our bodies. It’s as easy as signing your name.

This week I am joined by Maria Cebrian...


"As an avid long-distance mountain runner, Maria’s love and connection with nature was no secret. This sense of love for nature and its animals drove Maria towards veganism, which opened her eyes to the injustices that our planet and its animals face daily.


When Maria’s new vegan lifestyle started leaving some nutritional holes in her diet, she noticed a dip in her running performance. The last thing she wanted to do was compromise her vegan lifestyle, so she explored her options for supplements. To her surprise she couldn’t find a single sustainable multivitamin for vegans.


At that moment, she knew that had to change. So, Maria co-founded Terraseed - the all-in-one multivitamin that supports vegans and our environment."
