Not quite, and the distinction matters. Standard omega-3 supplements give you EPA and DHA. This study is specifically about very long chain PUFAs produced by the ELOVL2 elongase in retinal cells — molecules that are downstream from DHA, not

Cool timing on this. I've been building vital-stack.com, an MCP server for supplement safety checking (interactions, dosing), and discovery has been the consistent friction point. People ask "how do I find this?" and there&#x

I've been building vital-stack.com, a remote MCP server for checking supplement interactions. Claude's desktop app already handles the config side pretty cleanly for remote servers Name + URL and you're done, no JSON editi

The in-vitro caveat is the key issue here. The "100x" figure refers to inflammatory marker measurements in isolated mouse macrophage cell cultures, a setup where compounds are applied directly to cells at controlled concentrations

`.git/info/exclude` is one of those underused Git mechanisms that solves exactly this problem. Per-repository local ignores without touching the shared `.gitignore`. The point about AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) resp

The pattern of serving authoritative domain context via MCP rather than relying on model training data generalizes well beyond API specs. We've seen the same dynamic building a supplement-drug interaction MCP at VitalStack: once an AI

The shared-state manifest pattern is the right call — we hit the same design question building VitalStack (supplement interaction MCP server, vital-stack.com). Ended up using Supabase instead of a file because our skills need live lookup, b
