Why should I supplement my plant-based diet?
Vitamin B12 is the most commonly known nutrient missing in plant-based diets, and rightly so with a deficiency causing severe health outcomes.
However, it is not the only nutrient missing or difficult to adequately get in plant-based diets, and supplementing those missing nutrients offers many health and fitness benefits—as we break down in our Ingredients section.
We see supplementation—as well as plant-based diets as a whole—as a modern-day privilege. Having all of the benefits of a truly nutritionally-complete diet, without depending on any animal products, is what we believe in.
If I take supplements, should I not worry about what I eat?
We don't believe you should ever worry about what you eat, and instead enjoy mindfully choosing the foods that are right for you.
That being said, supplementation can never replace a balanced diet, despite some marketing claims. Moreover, we don't believe "greens" should be supplemented, nor that apple powder can replace a fresh apple, etc.
Plant-based whole foods cannot be replaced as the ideal main source of macro, micro and phytonutrients to support body function and health.
If you want to learn more about this topic, we recommend this article from Examine.
Our recommendation is that alongside taking supplementV daily, you strive to choose varied foods that are both nutritious and enjoyable for you. This doesn't mean every food you eat has to also be nutritious—it is the long-term trend that matters.
How do I take supplementV?
Take 2 capsules in the morning and 2 capsules in the evening, daily.
If preferred, take 4 capsules at once, daily.
Supplemented nutrients are generally better absorbed alongside food, and are meant to be a part of your diet. Certain nutrients (such as Vitamin D) are significantly better absorbed when taken alongside a fat-containing meal.
Can supplementV's packaging be recycled?
supplementV's packaging is made & printed in New Zealand under the Toitū Enviromark Diamond & Net Carbon Zero certifications—our packaging is recyclable, and recycling is highly encouraged.
Can I gain additional athletic benefits from increased supplementation?
While supplementV provides a balanced daily formula for supporting your health and fitness, if you are interested in maximising athletic results, you may want experiment with high‑dose powder‑form supplementation of Creatine Monohydrate, and potentially Beta‑Alanine. For exact dosage recommendations, we would suggest Examine as guidance.
Why does supplementV contain mostly DHA Omega-3?
Due to industry limitations, it is not currently possible for us to include a high dosage of microencapsulated EPA Omega-3 in supplementV.
That being said, we expect to innovate in this area and change that going forward.
