As a plant-based eater, you’re already following the healthiest and most responsible diet on earth, enjoying an abundance of most nutrients with every meal and supporting foundational long-term health. But, if you rely on whole foods alone, chances are you’re still missing a few key nutrients — and there’s (almost) nothing you can do about it.
A lack of complete nutrition can, at best, make you function at less than your peak. At worst, it can lead to serious health problems down the line.
But don’t take our word for it…
A United Nations’ study reports that 33% of the world’s soil resources are degraded — largely due to industrial agriculture. Poor soil quality negatively impacts the nutrition in our food, as well as its production and sustainability.
Think about how many of the same foods and meals you eat week after week. A review in Molecular Metabolism revealed that 75% of the world’s food comes from only 12 plants and five animal species. That’s not enough variety to ensure optimal nutrition.
Plant-based sources of vitamin B12 and Vitamin D aren’t as bioavailable as their animal counterparts, and omega-3 fatty acids like DHA and EPA are nearly impossible to obtain in adequate amounts from a standard plant-based diet.
In some cases, eating more of specific foods rich in the hard-to-get nutrients might help, since that would add more of those nutrients into your diet. But that's not always practical (you'd have to be munching seaweed all day every day to get enough DHA and EPA omega-3s, for example — and then you'd overdose on sodium and iodine).
You could also add individual supplements to your diet to fill in the gaps, but then you’d have to micromanage each one to make sure you’re getting enough, and in the right amounts. Plus, the cost of those individual bottles would add up quickly.
Well, now you’re overcorrecting the problem, paying for a bunch of nutrients you’re already getting from your plant-based diet. You’ll end up peeing out the excess. Talk about money down the drain… And you’re still not getting those omega-3s.
Now there’s an all-in-one multinutrient supplement that contains only the essential nutrition proven to be lacking in most plant-based diets, and nothing extra.
It’s the ultimate complement to healthy, plant-based eating, providing an insurance policy for optimal nutrition.

Each vegan capsule is peppermint scented, offering a refreshing smell that makes it easy and pleasant to enjoy. No more chalky pills that could choke a horse — and no more gagging on fishy smelling burps!
Essential comes in a biodegradable pouch, and your first order comes with a refillable glass jar, so you can store your Essential supply — or anything else you choose — long-term in an eco-friendly container.
And the pouch? It's 100% biodegradable and compostable. Add it to your food waste or compost bin, so it puts something back into the earth for what it took out of it. It’s made from plant fibers (bio-resins and wood cellulose), so it will break down on its own within 12 months.

Complement Essential is formulated, produced, and third-party tested right here in the USA. Unlike most vitamin brands “white-labeling” products produced by another company, at Complement, we do it all ourselves. From sourcing to shipping, we’re with you every step of the way.
Omega-3 fatty acids — including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) — are critical for the proper structure and function of cell membranes. They help keep your brain, heart, and immune system healthy†. Most people don’t get enough omega-3s, especially plant-based eaters, and they mistakenly believe that fish and fish oil are the only sources.
Good thing that’s not true, because there aren’t enough fish in the ocean to provide the world’s population with the DHA and EPA it needs.
Health organizations recommend getting 250–2,000mg of DHA and EPA, combined, daily for optimal health, but scientists have calculated that, based on an intake of just 500mg daily, it would take...
1.2 million more tons of DHA and EPA than what is currently available to serve the world’s population — and fish only supply 15% of the global demand.
But hold on a minute…
Fish get their omega-3s by eating algae, so why not just go straight to the source? Algae grows quickly and doesn’t contribute to overfishing, so it’s more sustainable than harvesting fish. Algae oil is a potent source of omega-3s, and research has shown that algae oil production puts less strain on the ecosystem than that of fish oil — and will continue to, even with increased demand.
The unprocessed, unrefined algae oil used in Complement Essential contains additional beneficial compounds, such as carotenoids, omega-7 fats, and chlorophyll, which gives it a dark green color that appears nearly black.

Complement Essential goes through a rigorous inspection process that includes third-party testing.
We want you to be certain that you are getting the highest quality nutrients, free from pollutants, heavy metals, and harmful pathogens — not to mention common allergens and artificial sweeteners, colors and flavors. That’s why every batch undergoes a rigorous series of tests to confirm that it contains all that it should — and nothing that it shouldn’t.
And we mean rigorous! We do as many as 19 different tests to ensure potency and safety. All this is done in pharmaceutical-grade facilities that are FDA Registered, and operate under cGMP standards.
This means that every ingredient and dosage on the back of the bag is verified by an independent lab. And just as important, the ingredients are tested for things like pesticides, E Coli, heavy metals, and salmonella.
We verify that all active ingredients on the label are present in the right amounts. But we're not satisfied with just meeting those - to ensure potency over time does not diminish, we aim for 10-20% over what the label states.
We take soil and water pollution seriously, especially since we design our products to help your body fight against it. Therefore, each batch gets tested for Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead and Mercury.
Our products are doubly protected by being produced in a certified facility, and tested for yeast and mold, and possible bacterial presence, such as Salmonella, E.coli and other coliforms.
We stand behind our products 100%. If you're not happy with the results, taste, or experience, we'll fix it.
You have a full 100 days after receiving your product to try it out and see if it's the right fit for you.
And if you don't love it within the first 100 days, we'll issue a full refund. No questions asked. No fine print. That's the Complement guarantee.
