Supplement Advisor MCP Server
An evidence-based supplement advisor MCP server for AI clients, offering recommendations, comparisons, interaction checks, dosage guidance, and product form classification.
Get ranked supplement recommendations for a condition with clinical evidence, dosing, cost-per-dose, and purchase links for over 100 supplements (
recommend_supplement).Compare different forms of a supplement (e.g., magnesium glycinate vs citrate vs oxide) with absorption data, warnings, and buying advice (
compare_forms).Check if medications deplete nutrients, returning depleted nutrients, mechanisms, severity, and recommended supplements (
check_interactions).Retrieve evidence-based dosage recommendations by supplement and condition, with clinical trial doses, timing, and safety (
get_dosage).Classify any product name or ingredient list for supplement form quality, with verdict, absorption, and better alternatives (
classify_form).Access data sourced from NIH DSLD, PubMed, NSF, and USP, with rankings based on cost-per-effective-dose, certification, and clinical evidence.
Serves as a data source for clinical trial evidence behind supplement recommendations, providing PMID-cited research references for dosing, form comparisons, and condition-specific efficacy.

How It Works
The server loads structured evidence data (clinical doses, form comparisons, medication-nutrient interactions) and exposes it through MCP tools. When an AI assistant receives a supplement question, it calls the appropriate tool and gets back formatted, citation-backed recommendations.
Product rankings are based on cost-per-effective-daily-dose, third-party certification status, and clinical evidence — not sponsorship.

Available Tools
5 toolscheck_interactionsA
Check if medications deplete nutrients, creating supplement needs. Returns depleted nutrients, mechanisms, severity, and recommended supplements.
Inputs: medication (required).
classify_formA

Inputs: category (required), product_text (required).
compare_formsA
Compare different forms of a supplement (e.g., magnesium glycinate vs citrate vs oxide). Shows absorption, best uses, warnings, and which form to buy.
Inputs: supplement (required).
get_dosageA
Get evidence-based dosage recommendations for a supplement, with clinical trial doses by condition, timing, and safety considerations.
Inputs: supplement (required), condition.
recommend_supplementA
Get evidence-based supplement recommendations for a specific condition. Returns ranked products with clinical evidence, dosing, cost-per-dose, and purchase links.

Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: recommending supplements for conditions, comparing forms, checking medication-induced depletions, providing dosage info, and classifying product forms. No two tools overlap in function.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (recommend_supplement, compare_forms, check_interactions, get_dosage, classify_form). The verbs are descriptive and the pattern is uniform.
Five tools is well-scoped for the domain, covering the key advisory workflows without bloat. Each tool addresses a distinct user need, making the set concise yet functional.
The tool set covers core workflows: condition-based recommendations, form comparisons, medication depletions, dosing, and product quality checks. A minor gap is lack of a tool for supplement-supplement interaction checking, but this is not a critical omission for the intended scope.
