SupplementDEX – The Evidence-Based Supplement Database
Hi this is a work in progress but it works to determine supplement efficacy for 500 conditions at the moment. Things you can do: - search for a condition -> find which supplements are effective -> see which studies indicate they are effective -> read individual study summaries - search for a supplement -> see effectiveness table, dosing, safety, dietary sources, mechanisms of action (+ browse all original sources) let me know what you think
SupplementDEX – The Evidence-Based Supplement Database launched on March 14, 2026 with 17 votes, #931 of 23,380 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches.
In plain words
SupplementDEX is an evidence-based database that helps users find which supplements may be effective for specific conditions. Users can search by condition to discover relevant supplements supported by research, then review study summaries and original sources. Alternatively, they can search by supplement to access effectiveness data, dosing information, safety details, dietary sources, and mechanisms of action. The database currently covers 500 conditions and is still under development.

I've been using AI to analyze every supplement on the marketJan 2026 · pillser.com · ▲94Hey HN! This has been my project for a few years now. I recently brought it back to life after taking a pause to focus on my studies. My goal with this project is to separate fluff from science when shopping for supplements. I am doing this in 3 steps: 1.) I index every supplement on the market (extract each ingredient, normalize by quantity) 2.) I index every research paper on supplementation (rank every claim by effect type and effect size) 3.) I link data between supplements and research papers Earlier last year, I took pause on a project because I've ran into a few issues: Legal: Shady…
- IWI want to change how people buy health supplements2023 · backoflabel.com · ▲70
I made a table where you can find out the source/location of factory for where health supplements are made. Then, I spent a year reading product labels so you can save time and money when buying supplements. This is that update. This is still a work in progress but it functions fine. My previous post was a simple database of company data showing ingredient sourcing/location. That took 10 days, this has taken me close to 9 months. BackOfLabel is an extension of that initial interest with dosage information at the product & ingredient level. This update allows sorting by many more…

Talanoa▲341Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
