Questionable Ingredients

Natural Flavors

Zevia do contain natural flavors, which for the most part is a questionable ingredient for vegans, but on their website they claim that all of their ingredients are vegan-friendly. This means that the natural flavors in Zevia is suitable for vegans.

Normally vegans needs to be careful when it comes to natural flavors because it’s an umbrella term. Meaning that it often consists of several ingredients and the source of these ingredient are never disclosed on the ingredients label.

So the ingredient could be sourced from animals and when reading the ingredients label, vegans could read natural flavors as an vegan-friendly ingredient, when in fact it could be non-vegan. So if you are concerned, always contact the company and ask about questionable ingredients.

Conclusion

Zevia is self declared vegan and all of their ingredients are claimed to be 100% vegan-friendly. This is amazing news for vegans, because Zevia has have many flavors to choose from and this means that I can add Zevia to my vegan shopping list.

Thanks for reading, take care!
