What the Site is not

Not medical advice. Nothing on the Site is a substitute for professional medical, pharmacological, or nutritional advice. The Site does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Not a doctor-patient relationship. Reading the Site does not create any clinical relationship between you and the Publisher.
Not exhaustive. The Site catalogs many but not all supplements, all interactions, or all populations. New evidence appears constantly; treat any rating as a snapshot.
Not a recommendation to buy. The Site does not endorse any brand or retailer. We do not sell supplements, do not run affiliate links, and do not accept advertising.

You may use the Site for personal, non-commercial reference. Re-publishing or re-distributing data from the Site requires attribution under our Creative Commons BY 4.0 license — see the LICENSE file in our public repository for the full terms.

Accuracy

We work continuously to keep the data accurate, citing primary sources for every claim and re-checking Tier 1 entries weekly against new meta-analyses (see the methodology page). However, the Site is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. Errors are inevitable in a database this size; if you find one, please use the "Report inaccuracy" button on any supplement card.
