Problk Health w/ Dr. Karleena Tuggle-McDaniel & Darian McDaniel

from We're Not OK: A Community of Healing · host Antija Allen and Justin Stewart

Today, we are joined by Problk Health co-founders Dr. Karleena Tuggle-McDaniel —a board-certified bariatric surgeon—and Darian McDaniel—a marketing executive with 20+ years of C-suite experience— as they share the personal journey that led them to build a wellness brand rooted in purpose, prevention, and community impact to transform Black health. Together, we explore the real impact of healthcare gaps in Black communities, the rise of preventable chronic conditions, and how Problk Health was created to offer solutions that meet those needs. From choosing the right vitamins and supplements to avoiding harmful or ineffective options, this conversation is both practical and eye-opening.  Grounded in purpose, D. K and Darian also discuss their commitment to reinvesting in organizations and initiatives that support health and healing—turning individual wellness into community impact.  This episode is a powerful reminder: if we don’t prioritize our health early, we’ll feel it later. Connect with the Dr. K & Darian:Visit their website:Problk Health Vitamins - Black Doctor Owned Vitamin Company – PROBLK HEALTHCheck out their mission: Our Mission – PROBLK HEALTHFollow them on InstagramConnect with the hosts:Follow the Book ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@notokbookproject⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the Podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thenotokpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Dr. Antija Allen ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@antijaallen⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Justin Stewart ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@justwrite_stewart87⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to our NEW YouTube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/@thenotokpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linktr.ee/notokbookproject⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Us ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dr. Antija Allen & Justin T.
