Affiliate Disclosure

How This Website Earns Revenue

This website contains affiliate links. When you purchase through these links, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

I'm Jacob O'Brien, the publisher of this website. I operate independently and am not affiliated with supplement manufacturers.

What This Means

Affiliate Link: A tracking link that credits me if you purchase through it

Commission: A percentage of the sale price paid by the merchant (not by you)

Your Cost: Identical whether you use my link or go directly to the merchant

My Independence Commitment

While I earn commissions from some products, this does NOT control my editorial content:

1. Research is based on evidence, not commission rates
2. I report both benefits and limitations
3. Negative findings are published honestly
4. I don't hide problems to protect commissions
5. I prioritize accuracy over generating sales

If research shows limitations or concerns with a product, that information is included in the review.

Why Affiliate Links?

Commissions support:

1. Research time for ingredient analysis
2. Website hosting and maintenance
3. Regular content updates
4. Monitoring new research and product changes

Without affiliate income, I would not be able to dedicate time to maintaining this resource.

Product Selection

I review products based on:

1. Reader interest and questions
2. Ingredient uniqueness
3. Availability and popularity
4. Scientific research interest

Not based on commission rates.

How I Maintain Editorial Independence

To prevent conflicts of interest:

1. I separate ingredient evidence from product marketing claims
2. I clearly distinguish between clinical research and anecdotal reports
3. I do not remove or hide negative findings
4. I acknowledge when evidence is preliminary, limited, or conflicting
5. Commission potential does not influence what I research or how I present findings

My editorial standards are detailed in my Editorial Policy.

Your Choice

You are free to:

1. Use my affiliate links to support this site
2. Purchase directly from manufacturers
3. Shop from any retailer you prefer
4. Not purchase at all

My goal is to provide helpful information regardless of where (or whether) you ultimately purchase.

FTC Compliance

This disclosure complies with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requirements for affiliate relationship transparency.

The FTC requires websites to clearly disclose material connections between publishers and merchants.

Scope of Revenue
