"It's the simple things you do every day that have an extraordinary impact.”

There is power in routine. As Frank Lipman, MD, Chief Medical Officer of THE WELL, says: “It's the simple things you do every day that have an extraordinary impact.”

That is especially true when it comes to what you eat. But even if you adhere to healthy eating habits — such as the ones you learned and adopted on THE WELL Cleanse — food alone can’t supply all of the nutrients your body needs to thrive. Why? Over time, the nutrient quality of the soil our food is grown in has been degraded, and depending on where you live, you may not have access to the fresh produce (or year-round sunshine!) that’s required for optimal health. In addition, stress, alcohol, coffee, sugar and some medications can impact nutrient stores, as well as our ability to absorb nutrients.

That’s where supplementation come in.

Though just about everyone can benefit from covering the basics (detailed below), most people need more. Read on for supplement recommendations from THE WELL medical team based on common need- states and lifestyle habits.

*When using this guide, prioritize what's currently most problematic or pressing. You may have multiple goals, but it's important not to overwhelm your system (namely your liver) with too many supplements at once. As a rule of thumb, you can safely take one targeted Complex (Gut, Immune, Renew, Stress) at a time + Daily Complex and any single-focused products, such as Superpowder, Liquid Calm, Turmeric Protect or the Essential Probiotic. If you are pregnant or on other prescription medications, please speak to someone on the medical team before starting any supplements. If you have any questions about supplementation, email the Health Coaches at: healthcoach@the-well.com.

Enjoying your morning smoothie routine?

No need to stop. Continue using the Clean Green Protein in a breakfast smoothie as a nutrient boost to start the day. Or, use it in a shake-as-snack later in the day.

Want to ensure you’re covering the basics?

Start with Daily Complex — a comprehensive multivitamin that includes metabolic support to balance blood sugar, antioxidants to support cellular health and detoxify, minerals including magnesium chelate to assist in essential biofunctions, curcumin to reduce inflammation and an omega component to aid brain health. Another foundational supplement is the Essential Probiotic, which is key for maintaining gut health.

Looking to strengthen your hair, skin and nails?

Add in the Renew Complex for a dose of nutrients specifically designed for the body’s outer barriers, which help you both look and feel good — win/win!

Need ongoing support for your gut health?

If you are feeling better, move on taking the Essential Probiotic daily to support the reinoculation of beneficial bacteria in your gut.

If you still feel like there is room for improvement and have unresolved gut symptoms, consider another round of the Gut Complex, which you took while on THE WELL Cleanse. If your digestive issues persist, consider scheduling a consultation with one of our functional medicine providers to get to the root cause.

*The Gut Complex is meant for short term use (1-3 months). If you find the need to take it for longer, please speak to someone on the medical team.

Want to nurture your immune system?

Superpowder will give your body what it needs to stay resilient — especially during winter months, and when you feel run down or plan to travel a lot.

Feeling overwhelmed and in need of stress relief?

Stress Complex helps support your stress hormones so they can respond optimally and bring you back to homeostasis.

*The Stress Complex is meant for short term use (1-3 months). If you find the need to take it for longer, please speak to someone on the medical team.

Struggling with sleep issues and/or anxiety?

Take Liquid Calm at night to help support a healthy response to stress so you can get adequate rest. However, if you find that you're dependent on it every night, there is likely a root issue that is not being addressed.

Need a little detox power… for times when you retox?
