vegums

Wholefood Probiotic provide all the benefits, without the fuss.

There is a sugar-free supplement (this does not list xylitol as an ingredient, but just to be safe, keep this well away from children and pets if used).

Algae-Based Natural Supplements

nothing fishy supplements

Nothing Fishy (use code ENGNF15 for 15% off first purchase) is a unique brand of natural health supplements, sold in glass jars with sustainable refill pouches for further orders. What makes this company unique is that it replaces fish supplements (which cause cruelty, over-fishing, by-catch and mercury) with sustainably-farmed algae alternatives. And no fishy burps!

This company has just two products, loved by thousands:

Omega 3 supplement gets its nutrients from the same place fish do – algae. The algae is sustainably-farmed and

We need ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) as our bodies can’t make it (it’s used to make EPA and DHA omega fatty acids). It’s found in ground flaxseed, walnuts and hemp seeds, but taking too much omega 6 fatty acids can negate the effects. So don’t eat (too many!) pumpkin/sunflower seeds,d and choose rapeseed oil for cooking (over sunflower, sesame or corn oils).

Vitamin D3 is a plant-based version of this important vitamin, which helps to absorb calcium and phosphate (for healthy bones and teeth) and grow strong muscles. It’s a fat-soluble vitamin, so good to consume alongside foods with fat (like nuts or seeds). Or with omega-3 fatty acid supplements.

Vitamin D is in chestnut mushrooms and in some fortified foods. But usually it’s easiest to get from a little natural sunshine and a supplement (also included in vegan multi-vits).

Although vitamin D2 supplements are vegan, vitamin D3 (the kind your body absorbs from the sun) is better. But most brands contain lanolin (sheep fat). So look for vegan-friendly D3 (usually from lichen).

Light-skinned people usually get enough vitamin D in summer by exposing skin to sunlight for half an hour. But people with darker skin (or who cover their faces or don’t go out a lot) may benefit from supplements. Read more on how to stay safe in the sun naturally.

nothing fishy sea moss

Irish Sea Moss is an edible seaweed that’s packed with nutrients and amino acids. Avoid seaweed for thyroid disorders or shellfish allergies (even though it’s not fish). 

Seaweed is a habitat for marine life and helps to regulate water quality and plays a key role in carbon sequestration, pulling carbon from the atmosphere. Think of seaweed as the lungs of the ocean, vital for a balanced and healthy marine environment.

Never harvest seaweed yourself (rocks are slippery and you need expert training to ‘give seaweed a haircut’ without removing roots). As someone once said ‘it’s seaweed to you, but the universe to a shrimp!’

Dogs are often tempted to play with seaweed fronds, but don’t let them eat it (it expands in the stomach as it dries, and is also salty). 

 

Vegan Supplements in Plastic-Free Pouches

omvits

Omvits is a smashing brand of vegan supplements, all sold in plastic-free pouches (the bottles can easily be recycled) and backed by science. All items are also sold with a 100-day happiness guarantee. If you subscribe online, you earn points with every order and make big savings.

This company began when the co-founder burst into a room, excited when he discovered that you could get omega 3 fatty acids from algae, rather than fish! They got together to create an algae-based supplement, which has seen been joined by others. Using algae gives you omega 3 acids from where the fish get them, but without the over-fishing or mercury.

And despite using premium ingredients like lichen (vitamin D3) and Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12), the whole range if as affordable, as it is ethically produced.

This company also works with a charity to donate vegan vitamin A to children in developing countries. This vitamin is often lacking in areas of poverty and malnutrition, resulting in stunted growth, weak immune systems and sometimes blindness.

omvits

The range includes:

Multivitamins are sold in plastic-free pouches, and are easy to swallow (not ‘chalky – and can also be snapped in half). Perfect for vegans, these contain 24 nutrients including vitamin D3 (from lichen) and vitamin B12, along with essential minerals like magnesium and iodine.

Omega 3 is available as capsules or liquid (refreshing orange flavour). One bottle contains the same omega-3 as 37 fish, but made from algae! Omega 3 is good for your heart, brain and eyes, skin and to reduce inflammation. Also in a strawberry version for children.

Vitamin D3 is a highly-absorbable form of this good winter nutrient if you don’t get out in the sun enough (and few plant foods contain it). This version is free from lanolin (sheep fat) and instead uses lichen. One tiny tablet gives you all your daily needs.

Vitamin B12 is the ‘vitamin for vegans’ (although it’s actually most lacking in older meat-eating women). Essential to create red blood cells for energy and a healthy immune and nervous system, if your GP says you need this vitamin, try this brand that is more easily absorbed and retained than cheaper versions.

Sustainable Supplements (inspired by nature)

nutrified supplements

Nutrified is a unique brand of supplements. They are backed by science, but inspired by nature, using plant-based ingredients. The main supplements are sold in glass bottles, then just order compostable pouches after that.

The extensive range includes:

Gut Goodness is a prebiotic and probiotic blend of inulin, turmeric and 8 strains of probiotics to bring balance to your digestive system.

Probiotics are ‘live’ foods or supplements for good bacteria. Prebiotics are foods (like high-fibre) that act as food for microflora. 

Iron Up is a mix of iron, vitamin C, copper, vitamin A and vitamin B12.

Green Goddess Smoothie Scoop is an easy way to get your greens (all 9 of them). Just mix into your morning smoothie for a daily dose of goodness.

nutrified supplements

Bedtime Bliss (a blend of magnesium and vitamin B6 with safe calming botanicals). Includes 5-HTP (which converts to serotonin – the ‘sleep’ chemical).

Get Up and Go (an energy blend of B-vitamins, iron and guarana – not for bleeding disorders or diabetes). Again it’s not for people on blood thinners as it contains ‘caterpillar fungus’ (from fungus, not caterpillars!)

Inspiration from Abroad: Sustainable Supplements

Terraseed

Occasionally on this site, we recommend and profile brands from abroad. Sometimes it’s good to look beyond our own shores, to be inspired by unique aspects that others are creating in business.

Terraseed is a company that is as passionate about animal welfare and plastic-free, as it is about vitamins and minerals. The supplements industry creates 1.8 billion plastic bottles each year (70% of which end up as waste), with almost half containing animal-derived ingredients, leading the senseless killing of 24 billion creatures each year (many of them fish).

This company produces nutrient-potent supplements made with ethically-sourced ingredients, sold in biodegradable packaging, from the corn-based shrink sleeves and paper bottles to nontoxic inks.

TerraSeed was founded by a long-distance mountain runner, whose love of nature opened her eyes to the injustices that the planet and animals face daily, including in the supplement industry.

The flagship multivitamin (in cardboard tube packaging) contains plant-based vitamin D for healthy immunity, vitamin C for white blood cells, zinc for immunity, vitamin B12 (for healthy blood cells), plant-based omega 3 fatty acids and iodine for thyroid function.

Terraseed multi vitamin for kids

The Children’s multivitamin is cherry-orange flavour and includes healthy doses of omega fatty acids, vitamins D3 and B12. As gelatin-free gummies.

futurekind supplements

Future Kind is a supplement brand founded by two brothers, who are nutritionists from Australia. Like a growing number of UK brands, these are all vegan. So what’s different about this brand, in that it’s loved by thousands of customers worldwide?

futurekind supplements

Not only are all the supplements sold in recycled packaging, using carbon-offset deliveries. But it donates a portion of profits to animal sanctuaries worldwide.

And not only that, but you can use Kind Coins to redeem against future orders (or donate those Kind Coins to animal sanctuaries instead). Each customer also receives a ‘certificate of sponsorship’, showing the good their purchases are doing. 

futurekind supplements

This company makes omega-3 from algae (the same place the fish get it), sustainably-sourced lichen (for vitamin D) and produces supplements containing super-berries and zinc, to naturally produce your own collage, for their beauty supplements.

The pouches can be home-composted and will break down in days.

And finally, although the supplements are made in the US, this company does not have ‘big offices’. Instead, it works as a remote team, with home workers around the world running the company.

Unlike our government which tried to force people back to offices after the pandemic to make rich landlords happy, FutureKind prefer people to have good life/work balance by working from home, and not have to leave family (including pets) for long commutes to offices in the city. This also reduces the number of cars on the road.

futurekind supplements

The Multivitamin covers your bases. It contains vitamin B12 (which 92% of vegans don’t get enough of – along with many other people) along with plant-based omega 3 and vitamin D. Importantly, it is not ‘filled up’ with other nutrients that aren’t needed in supplements. There’s also a special prenatal vitamin for expecting mums.

futurekind supplements

This company also makes vegan protein powders and vegan meal shakes (made with blueberries, kale, spinach and broccoli. You get a free steel shaker with your first order, then compostable pouches after that.
