Building in the same space. vital-stack.com focuses specifically on interactions between supplements and drugs, rather than efficacy: the question "is it safe to take with what I'm already on" rather than "does this work". The interaction data typically lives in clinical pharmacology databases and isn't easily surfaced in a way consumers can use. We have 182 supplements and 1,312 interactions catalogued so far, with an MCP server that lets AI assistants query the interaction database in real time. Curious how supplementdex sources efficacy data. Is it summarized literature along the lines of Examine.com, or closer to primary research?
