A quick counter point to the parent comment: I'd actually love to have supplement recommendations from a trusted source. I've heard on multiple occasions that many supplements found in large retailers don't have the ingredients they claim to have. So that would be highly valuable to me.

That just moves the trust from the supplement brand to who recommends it. You are still left with a problem of trust.

The problem of trust is never removed. But what must be trusted can be made explicit, the burden of trust can be shifted to more trustworthy parties, or to parties who have less problematic incentives.

I've heard https://www.consumerlab.com/ recommended a few times - they run a membership based service that reviews supplements.

No personal experience with them, though (and I am skeptical about supplements in general).
