Dr. Karleena Tuggle-McDaniel and Darian McDaniel founded @Problk_Health because they wanted to make a difference. The two main reasons for them creating Problk Health Vitamins are to bring a focal point to health awareness by informing and emphasizing the importance of health consciousness in the Black community.
The McDaniels noticed that paying attention to your health isn’t as big of a focus as it should be in the Black community. So, they decided to start donating 50% of their net profits every month to support existing non-profits whose mission is to improve health and wellness in majority Black communities.
Dr. Karleena has a solid background in health service, having been a physician for over 16 years in predominantly minority communities and a weight-loss surgeon for the past 11 years. In addition, her Co-Founder husband Darian has over 20 years of marketing experience.
Given his background in marketing and access to data, Darren knew that vitamin supplements could make a difference in health since at least 92% of Black people have some level of vitamin deficiency. Medical research has shown that these deficiencies can contribute to health issues.
Due to the many experiences they’ve witnessed in the Black community, The McDaniels worked together to create an accessible brand. “What makes us different from other supplements is that we help support your individual health while supporting the health of your community,” Dr. Karleena tells BlackNews.Com. “How many other vitamin brands can say the same? We also aim to make health and wellness relatable and cool to encourage more people who may not be thinking about it to make it a priority.”
She added, “We wholeheartedly believe that our health is our most valuable asset. Since we only get one shot at this thing called life, let’s make the most of it. The status of our health can hold us back with unfulfilled dreams or boost us to heights we could never imagine possible. At the end of the day, we all have the power to optimize our potential.”
Go support this awesome brand! #BWLM💕
