supplement_labels

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

Search real supplement product labels — brand name, ingredients, amounts, claims — from NIH’s Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD). This is what’s printed on a bottle, not the science behind an ingredient (use supplement_factsheet or herb_at_a_glance for that). Search by product name, brand, or ingredient. Returns each label’s id for use with supplement_label.

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredDescription
querystringyesFree-text search — a product name, brand, or ingredient, e.g. “ashwagandha” or “Nature Made fish oil”.
limitnumbernoMax labels to return (default 20, max 50).
