How to read your result

Build a daily timeline

Each supplement shows its best time. Extra times are alternatives, not extra doses.

Select supplements and enter breakfast, lunch, dinner and the meal with the most fat to see one suggested time per supplement. Berberine is split only when you choose a split plan.

No supplements selected yet. Choose one or more to build a routine.

Medication reminder: Levothyroxine and some antibiotics may need separation from calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc by several hours. Ask your pharmacist. Discuss berberine with your doctor if you take metformin or other blood-sugar medicine.

How we choose these times

How we choose the suggested times

Fat-soluble supplements are placed with the selected fattiest meal, magnesium and glycine in the evening, NMN/NR in the morning, and minerals are separated where commonly advised. A split-dose timeline appears only when a split is intentionally selected. Times crossing midnight are ordered on the next day. These are reminders, not individualized medical instructions.

NIH ODS fact sheets: vitamin D, iron, magnesium, zinc.

Frequently asked questions

Does supplement timing change whether a supplement works?

For many supplements, taking them consistently and following the label matters more than a precise clock time. Some minerals and medicines do need spacing.

Should I separate iron from magnesium or coffee?

Iron may be affected by other minerals and coffee or tea. The planner flags a two-hour separation reminder; ask a pharmacist about your own medicines.

Can I take berberine with metformin?

The combination may affect blood sugar. Talk with your prescriber before combining berberine with metformin or other glucose-lowering medicine.

Does this planner replace medication instructions?

No. Follow your prescription and supplement labels, and check timing questions with a pharmacist.

Not medical advice. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before starting supplements, especially if you take medication, are pregnant or have a health condition.
