This page is the formal disclosure required by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for affiliate marketing. It applies to every page on this site where a product review links to a vendor’s purchase page (ClickBank, vendor direct, etc.) via our tracking redirect.
What is an affiliate link?
Affiliate links contain a tracking parameter that lets the vendor (in this case ClickBank, the digital marketplace that hosts these products) record that the click came from this site. When a reader clicks the link and buys, the vendor pays us a commission. The commission comes out of the vendor’s marketing budget; it does not add anything to the price you pay.
Editorial independence
Although affiliate commissions fund this site’s operation, our editorial opinions are independent. We are not paid for positive reviews. Where a vendor’s marketing claims are paraphrased or quoted in our reviews, they are marked with [V] for “vendor claim” — and contrasted with our own observations where applicable.
We rate products on a 5-star scale based on:
- Strength of independent evidence for each declared ingredient
- Quality and completeness of public ingredient disclosure
- Editorial trial observations (where the reviewer has personally used the product)
- Refund and customer-support policy quality
- Vendor-side compliance with FTC and FDA advertising requirements
Where to find more about our review process
See our editorial standards page for how each review is built.
FTC compliance statement
This site is committed to honest, transparent, and lawful affiliate marketing practices in line with the FTC Endorsement Guides (16 CFR Part 255, current as of the latest revision). Each product page that contains affiliate links includes a prominent disclosure in or near the call-to-action button. Where vendor claims are quoted, the [V] notation is used. Where we have personally trialed a product, the review explicitly states the trial window and caveats.
Note: This site covers health-related products. Statements in product reviews have not been evaluated by the FDA. The information on each review page is editorial opinion and personal experience, not medical advice. Consult a qualified healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or managing a medical condition.
