Overview
Supplement Assistant is designed for anyone who wants a comprehensive solution to manage, monitor, and optimize their supplement routine. Whether you're taking a single multivitamin or managing a complex stack, we provide the tools and insights you need.
Our platform combines AI-powered search, interaction detection, timing optimization, and complete inventory management—all in one place. No more juggling multiple apps, spreadsheets, or trying to remember what you're taking and when.
How It Works
When you search for a supplement, our system first checks our internal database for instant results. If the supplement isn't found, our AI automatically searches multiple trusted sources to gather clinician-grade data.
Type in a supplement name, and our AI searches multiple sources to find accurate information. The data is automatically saved to our database, so future searches are instant and free. You get comprehensive information including benefits, dosage, timing, interactions, and more—all in one place.
Search Process
- User enters a supplement name
- System checks internal database first (fast, no cost)
- If not found, AI queries multiple trusted sources using GPT-4o-mini
- AI extracts and standardizes data into consistent format
- Data is saved to database for future use
- Results are displayed with both short summaries and detailed profiles
Data Sources
Our AI searches across multiple trusted sources including medical databases, research papers, and supplement information repositories to gather comprehensive, evidence-based data.
Data Processing
All AI-generated data is standardized into consistent formats, ensuring that information is presented uniformly across all supplements. This includes extracting key information like benefits, dosage, timing, interactions, and contraindications.
Note: The AI search uses OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini model, which is optimized for cost-effective, accurate information retrieval. All data is validated and stored for future reference.
How It Works
When you view a supplement's detailed profile, you'll see a comprehensive list of known interactions. This includes other supplements, medications, and conditions that may interact with the supplement. We also flag supplements that may reduce each other's effectiveness when taken together.
Detection Methods
Interaction data is gathered from multiple sources including:
- Medical databases and research literature
- Known pharmacological interactions
- Absorption interference patterns
- Metabolic pathway conflicts
Types of Interactions Detected
- Adverse reactions: Combinations that may cause negative side effects
- Reduced effectiveness: Supplements that may cancel each other out
- Absorption interference: Supplements that interfere with each other's absorption
- Metabolic conflicts: Supplements that compete for the same metabolic pathways
Important: While we provide comprehensive interaction data, this is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Always consult with a healthcare provider before combining supplements, especially if you're taking medications.
How It Works
Each supplement profile includes recommendations for the best time to take it. This might be with meals, on an empty stomach, in the morning, evening, or at specific times relative to other supplements. These recommendations help you maximize absorption and effectiveness while minimizing potential side effects.
Factors Considered
- Circadian rhythms: How supplements interact with your body's natural daily cycles
- Absorption patterns: Whether supplements are better absorbed with or without food
- Metabolic timing: When your body processes supplements most effectively
- Interaction timing: How timing affects interactions with other supplements
- Side effects: Timing recommendations to minimize potential side effects
Common Timing Patterns
- Morning: Energy-boosting supplements, B vitamins, certain minerals
- Evening: Sleep-supporting supplements, magnesium, calming herbs
- With meals: Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), certain minerals
- Empty stomach: Some amino acids, certain probiotics
- Separated: Supplements that may interfere with each other's absorption
Note: Timing recommendations are based on general research and patterns. Individual responses may vary, and it's always best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Managing a Multi-Supplement Stack
Scenario: You're taking 8+ supplements daily for various health goals—energy, immune support, joint health, and cognitive function.
How Supplement Assistant helps: Keep track of all supplements in one inventory, check for interactions before adding new ones, get timing recommendations to optimize absorption, and set reminders so you never miss a dose. The interaction checker helps you identify if any supplements are canceling each other out or causing conflicts.
Checking Interactions Before Adding New Supplements
Scenario: You want to add a new supplement but aren't sure if it's safe to combine with your current routine.
How Supplement Assistant helps: Search for the new supplement, view its detailed profile including all known interactions, and check if any of your current supplements are listed. The system flags potential conflicts, reduced effectiveness, or absorption issues, helping you make an informed decision.
Optimizing Timing for Maximum Effectiveness
Scenario: You're taking supplements but not seeing the expected benefits, or you're experiencing side effects.
How Supplement Assistant helps: Each supplement profile includes timing recommendations—when to take it (morning/evening), whether to take with food, and how to space it from other supplements. Following these recommendations can improve absorption, reduce side effects, and maximize effectiveness.
