184. Rachel Soper Sanders, Co-founder & CEO of Rootine

Today, I'm joined by Rachel Soper Sanders, co-founder & CEO of Rootine, a personalized nutrition and diagnostics platform.

Founded in 2018, Rootine's unique approach to health and wellness combines DNA testing with a genomic algorithm to create customized vitamin subscriptions tailored to each member's specific needs, be it performance, stress-reduction, or everyday health.

In this episode, Rachel details the shortcomings of the unregulated supplement industry and how to remove barriers between wellness, nutrition, and healthcare.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• How Rachel's poor experience with healthcare led her to start Rootine
• Why proof of impact is key to reshaping a broken system
• How the one-size-fits-all supplement industry is making people sicker
