The nutrition world can be so confusing, don’t you agree? A new protein powder, immune boosting pill, brain health or other dietary supplement seems to appear on the market every day, and they are ALL being promoted as necessary for wellness. You see adverts everywhere – on social media, in the midst of YouTube videos, on websites, and through TV commercials. 

There’s so much noise and information that we don’t know where to turn, and it’s all so tiring. Or we get pulled into the latest nutrition hype and because we’re afraid of missing out, we end up spending a ton of money on nutritional products and over-supplement to try to cover ALL our bases. Can you relate?

Well, let’s cut through the hype and clear up this confusion. In this episode, I want to share about 3 important nutrients that plant-based eaters and vegans need to be mindful of for good health. These are REAL nutrients you need to watch out for and potentially supplement. But spoiler alert, these are nutrients that meat-eaters also need to be aware of. What are they? Grab a drink and join me inside this episode to find out!
