We here at PLANTSTRONG get asked all of the time - What supplements should I take? How do I know if I’m deficient in something? Who do you recommend?

We answer all of those questions and more today with Matt Tullman, founder and CEO of Complement.

Matt and his team have taken a maniacal and lengthy pursuit to engineer the BEST supplements for plant-based eaters, and they’ve done the work to validate their innovations by having everything verified with third party testing.

In the Esselstyn family, data is king and Matt has done a lifetime’s worth of research to produce what we believe to be the perfect complement to a whole foods, plant-based lifestyle.

This episode provides valuable insights into plant-based nutrition, proper supplementation, and optimizing health through a plant-based lifestyle.

As you’ll hear Matt stress repeatedly today, “supplements” are just that. Health starts first and foremost with a whole foods, plant-based diet, followed by positive lifestyle interventions like good sleep and social connections. From there, once you know your numbers, you can start to fill in those gaps that may need a little boost. thriving on a plant-based diet has never been easier with Complement.
