All protein is not created equal.
Protein is made up of amino acids, and there are certain ones, called “essential,” which your body cannot produce on its own and must get through food.
We’ve taken five real food ingredients to create the perfect blend of essential amino acids for plant-based eaters.
In particular, we’re focused on leucine and lysine, the two essential amino acids hardest to get on the vegan diet.

Complement Plus goes through a rigorous inspection process that includes third party testing.
We want you to be certain that you’re getting the highest quality ingredients, free of pollutants, heavy metals, and harmful pathogens — not too mention common allergens and artificial sweeteners, colors, and flavors. That’s why every batch undergoes a rigorous series of tests to confirm that it contantains all that it should — and nothing it shouldn’t.
And we mean rigorous! We do as many as 19 different test to ensure potency and safety. All this done in pharmaceutical-grade facilities that are FDA Registered, and operate under cGMP standards.
Third-party tested.
This means that every ingredient and dosage on the back of the bottle is verified by an independent lab. And just as important, the ingredients are tested for things like pesticides, E Coli, heavy metals, and salmonella.
Potency
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.
Heavy Metals
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.
Pathogens
Our products are doubly protected by being produced in a certifiedfacility, and tested for yeast and mold, and possible bacterial presence, such as Salmonella, E.coli and other coliforms.
The Complement guarantee.
We want you to love Complement as much as we do.
If within 30 days of receiving your order, you're not absolutely thrilled with the degree to which Complement has completely changed your protein powder experience, just send us back the bag and we'll refund 100% of your purchase price, no questions asked. We're here to strengthen this movement that we so strongly believe in — so we're not happy until you are.

"I love that Complement Protein has just 5 whole food ingredients. No isolates, no fillers, no sweeteners, no additives.

So how much protein do vegans really need?
The answer is the same as for everyone else: "It depends." Mostly on your level of physical activity, your body composition and your goals. The chart below is a good rule of thumb, but your needs may vary.
0.36g*
Average to low levels of physical activity (i.e. most people)
0.55g*
Moderately to very active people (probably you ;)
0.70g*
High levels of extreme physical activity (think pro athletes)
*Per kg of body weight.

Below is the confirmed Nutrition Facts panel for Complement Protein.
How should I use Complement Protein?
We designed Complement Protein to be versatile - meaning you can add it to a smoothie, mix it with plant milk or other drink, or even use it for baking! (Please share whatever you create with it by tagging us on IG @LoveComplement :)
Does it contain any allergens?
Complement Protein is soy-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free! (And obviously, free of any other animal-based ingredients.) It does contain peas and almonds , which some people may be sensitive to.
Is it certified organic?
YES! All the individual ingredients are fully organic and we're happy to announce that we were able to complete the organic certification for the Complement Protein in time for the first batch as well!
Is Complement Protein made from whole foods?
Complement Protein is made from USDA certified 100% organic ingredients, which are ground into a fine powder. Some of these are “protein isolates”. While we always prefer “whole foods”, it is necessary for us to include isolates to ensure that we deliver the ideal texture and protein quantity in a small serving (three tablespoons).
How does it taste?
Complement Protein does NOT contain any flavors, natural or artificial, nor any sweeteners — it is a neutral blend of complete plant protein. We believe that makes it the cleanest, most versatile option — and allows you to mix it with whatever whole food ingredient tastes best to you.
I heard that organic plant protein powders have the highest levels of heavy metals. Is this true?
Heavy Metals are a natural part of our environment and, unfortunately, because they exist in the Earth’s soil, they end up in organic fruits and vegetables. Some recent research seems to indicate that many vegan protein powders contain high levels of heavy metals, like lead, cadmium, and arsenic. That’s one of the reasons we created Complement Protein -- so we could be absolutely sure that it exceeds the stringent California Prop 65 standards, which are up to 1,000 times lower than levels still deemed safe by the FDA. We only create products that we are comfortable giving our young children, so we go beyond even what government entities suggest to ensure safety.
Does Complement Protein ship internationally?
Yes! Complement Protein is available to order in Canada, the EU, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong. Let us know if your country is missing from the list, so we can check the shipping costs for you. (And please keep in mind that international orders may incur extra import fees at delivery. This is country-specific, and out of our control. There's very little we can do to assist with packages lost or detained by customs.)
If you are an international customer with an existing Complement Plus subscription and would like to combine shipping going forward, please let us know after ordering so we can adjust your delivery schedule accordingly.
What if I change my mind?
You are 100% covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee if you you receive your order and decide you don't like it.
How does the subscription work? And can I change it?
By choosing to subscribe to Complement Protein, you're locking in a price that's 10% lower than retail - for life!
