Vega Response to Health Canada Advisory About Chloramphenicol Contamination in NHP’s

BURNABY, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – Nov. 1, 2013) – It is with great shock and disappointment that we learned of Health Canada’s public advisory that specific lots of Vega One and Vega Sport Protein have “potentially serious risks posed to health”, as we are confident that our products in question are absolutely safe. We have been actively trying to work with Health Canada to discuss this matter and will continue to do so. However, given that we value each of our consumer’s individual feelings about our product, we will accept returns with a full refund. For a listing of product names and lot codes that may contain trace amounts of chloramphenicol, all of which are well below the levels published by Health Canada to be safe for human consumption, click here.
