Decide on supplements using science, not hype
25 followers
A science-based supplement decision assistant. It evaluates supplements through a science-first lens, linking claims to real evidence, highlighting what an ingredient can and cannot do, and tailoring answers to your personal context. No influencer hype, no brand incentives—just clear, evidence-backed reasoning so you can take supplements with confidence or skip them without regret.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built this because supplement advice today is loud, conflicting, and rarely personal. Most products tell you what to take. This one helps you decide whether to take anything at all.
Instead of recommendations or hype, it gives personalized, evidence-linked reasoning — showing what a supplement can help with, what it can’t, and where the science is actually strong or weak.
The goal isn’t more supplements. It’s better decisions.
Sometimes that means taking something with confidence. Sometimes it means skipping it — without regret.
I’d love to hear what you’re most confused about when it comes to supplements, or what you wish existing tools did better 🙏
Hey! Maker here 👋
We built this because supplements are confusing and, honestly, kinda exhausting.
Everyone online sounds very confident — but the science usually isn’t.
So instead of hype or rankings, we try to explain what an ingredient is likely to do, unlikely to do, and why — in normal human language.
Sometimes the answer is “yeah, this could help.”
Sometimes it’s “eh… probably not worth your money.”
Both are useful.
If you try it out, we’d really appreciate any feedback！
Congrats on the launch! Big fan of the science-first angle!
@junjie_guo Personal health varies a lot between people. How does SuppCheck account for individual differences like age, medical conditions or medications when evaluating whether a supplement is right for someone?
@junjie_guo @annika4 Health isn’t one-size-fits-all — and SuppCheck doesn’t treat it that way.
SuppCheck first retrieves and analyzes real scientific studies, many of which are conducted on specific populations (by age, conditions, medications, diet). When you share your profile info, we prioritize evidence from studies on similar groups and flag when results may not apply.
For conditions and medications, we surface known interactions or safety signals from the literature. If evidence is weak or missing, we say so clearly.
In short, we don’t ask “Is this supplement good?”
We ask “Is there evidence it helps someone like you?”
This is such a refreshing take on supplements—no hype, just personalized, evidence-based reasoning to help you decide if you even need to take something, not just what to pick. 👀 It’d be awesome if later it could let you input existing supplements for a combined evidence breakdown, but I’m already stoked to test this out to make smarter choices.
@yuanrong_tang Thanks — really appreciate that！
And you’re spot on: letting users input multiple supplements together and getting a combined, evidence-based breakdown (interactions, redundancy, gaps) is exactly one of the next things we’re working toward.
