Sister Sites

- SupplementsApothecary.com — forms, manufacturing, COA practices
Research & Evidence
How we translate research into practical protocols.
Our approach
- Map mechanisms → pick interventions with plausible fit
- Prefer human data; clearly label tradition vs evidence strength
- Flag safety, interactions, and contraindications up front
FAQ
Do you cite studies?
Yes—protocol subpages include citations and notes on evidence strength.
Do you accept brand sponsorships?
No on this site. Education only; commerce lives off-site to keep lines clean.
Quality, Purity & Potency
How to assess supplements before they ever reach your cart.
- cGMP and third-party testing (ISO/IEC 17025 preferred)
- Clear lot/COA access; identity, purity, potency assays
- Stable/clinically-used form (e.g., magnesium glycinate vs oxide)
- Transparent excipients; allergen disclosures
- Reasonable dosing, realistic claims, and recall history
What labs test for
Identity (correct species/compound), contaminants (heavy metals, microbes), adulterants, and active-constituent potency.

How this site works, what to expect, and how to use our protocols responsibly.
- Education, not treatment: Use our guides to learn and to ask better questions of your clinician.
- Safety first: Check interactions, contraindications, and quality notes before trying anything new.

- Protocols: Start with foundation (sleep, stress, nutrition), then add targeted steps.
