Don't just do it. Understand it first.

Substantia translates supplement and wellness research into plain English, so you can see what the evidence says before you take something.

Formal Research

Evidence VolumeHow much formal human research exists.

ConsistencyWhether the studies point the same way.

Study QualityHow well the research was designed.

RecencyWhether the picture reflects recent work.

Broader Signal

Traditional UseWhether there is a documented history of use.

MechanismHow well the biology is understood.

MomentumWhich way the research is moving.

Every claim is read across seven dimensions in two tracks, so you see the whole picture instead of a single score.

Plain English, with the sources shown

Each claim, like whether creatine affects memory and thinking, is summarized in plain language and linked to the sources behind it.

No verdicts, no scores

Substantia doesn't grade supplements or call claims true or false. It shows you what the research says and where it is still thin, and leaves the decision to you.

Nothing to sell you

Substantia doesn't sell supplements or run ads. When a source was funded by industry, that is noted right next to it.

Track what you take

Keep one list of the supplements and protocols you take, with your reason and dose for each, and read the research behind every item on it.
