I forgot one more option I considered: Even though every ingredient is stored in a different table, I could enforce unique PK across tables. Then I would not need to specify type in the ID. This would mean that I need to lookup every ID to

Yeah, I am struggling a bit with this analogy of a car. I am building a what I can only describe as "Supplement discovery based on science and not marketing". It requires that I create a database of supplements available on the ma
