Supplements

This is the catch-all category for compounds that don't fit performance, vitamins, or minerals — curcumin, CoQ10, omega-3, berberine, and similar. It's the most evidence-heterogeneous group on the site: some entries have multiple well-powered human trials behind a specific claim, others lean on smaller or earlier-stage research. There's no shortcut here — check each product's grade individually.
