As the number one natural nutrition company in the U.S., we've been making people healthier for over 50 years. And we've made it part of our job to make the planet healthier along the way.

We were doing it back when green was just a color and biodegradable was barely a word. In fact, as early as 1960, we made one of the first biodegradable household cleaners ever. And we were the first company in the world to obtain Climate Neutral tm; certification and totally offset our CO2 emissions, resulting in a net zero impact on the environment."

We do what we do because we think it's essential to do our small part as part of the movement to make people and the planet healthier. In doing so, we believe each of our contributions put together will create the major change we wish to see in the world.

Among these are our campaign to plant a million trees. Our sponsorship of three North Pole expeditions to measure the impact of global warming. Our donation of environmentally friendly cleaning supplies, used on board Jacques Cousteau's research vessels. Our donation of vitamins and nutrition drinks to undernourished children and earthquake victims. Our support of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals to promote human rights and end poverty. Our partnership with Dr. Wangari Maathai, the only Nobel Peace laureate recognized for environmental work. Our official sponsorship of Earth Day. Our donation of almost half a million dollars to U.S. hurricane relief. Our annual giving that has topped $3 million.

The list goes on.

And so does our commitment to doing what's right simply because it is.
