supplement_factsheets

Pack: nih-supplements · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nih-supplements/mcp

The bundled list of ~45 topics NIH ODS publishes a fact sheet for (vitamins, minerals, a few botanicals) — what to pass as name to supplement_factsheet, and which reading levels each has. Optional query filters by substring. There is no live NIH endpoint that lists all fact sheets, so this is a point-in-time inventory read from ODS’s own list page.

Parameters
