Patrick Battuello is the founder of Horseracing Wrongs, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, is the nation’s only organization clearly and consistently working to end horseracing in the United States. Through our unprecedented FOIA reporting, we have compiled irrefutable evidence, including annual killed-in-action lists, that exposes the horseracing industry for what it is – animal exploitation, animal cruelty, animal killing. Horseracing Wrongs has been featured in Forbes, USA Today, The Guardian, Boston Herald, the Sun Sentinel, among many others. He has also recently appeared on HBO’s “Real Sports,” CNN, and ESPN’s “Outside the Lines.” In addition, he has testified before two committees of the New York State Senate and was published in The Washington Post.

And now the good folks of Complement have a new product: Complement Plus, a supplement in tablet form that includes all the nutrients in Complement spray, along with zinc, iodine, selenium, magnesium, and vitamin K2. Essential for blood clotting, healthy bones, and heart health, the only plant-food source of vitamin K2 is natto, an obscure, fermented soy food and one that is definitely an acquired taste (and smell).
