Affiliate and Product Disclosure

Plain-language terms and policies for using Viral Vitalism.

Last updated:

Viral Vitalism is reader-supported. Some links on our site, newsletters, social posts, product pages, guides, and articles may be affiliate links.

If you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission or receive other compensation.

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Affiliate links allow a merchant or affiliate network to track that a visitor came from Viral Vitalism.

If you buy through one of those links, we may receive a commission.

This usually does not change the price you pay, unless a discount, coupon, or special offer is clearly stated.

Product categories we may discuss

We may discuss or link to:

  • Books
  • Fitness equipment
  • Wearables
  • Sleep tools
  • Nutrition products
  • Supplements
  • Home gym equipment
  • Recovery tools
  • Testing services
  • Apps and software
  • Health-related devices
  • Consumer products relevant to longevity, fitness, nutrition, and performance

Editorial independence

Affiliate compensation may influence which products we can sustainably cover, but our goal is to maintain editorial independence.

We try to recommend or discuss products based on relevance, evidence, quality, usability, value, and fit for the audience.

A paid relationship does not guarantee positive coverage. A lack of affiliate relationship does not mean a product is bad.

No medical endorsement

A product mention is not medical advice and is not a guarantee that the product is safe, effective, legal, appropriate, or suitable for you.

Always read labels, warnings, ingredient lists, and manufacturer instructions.

Consult a qualified healthcare professional before using supplements, devices, tests, medications, or health products.

We may receive free products, review units, sponsorship fees, travel, access, or other compensation.

When content is sponsored or materially influenced by a brand relationship, we will aim to disclose that relationship clearly.

Examples of disclosures we may use:

  • Affiliate disclosure: This article contains affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you buy through them.
  • Sponsored: This content was produced in partnership with the sponsoring brand.
  • Product sample: We received this product for review. The brand did not control our final opinion.
  • Paid partnership: Viral Vitalism was compensated by the sponsoring brand.

Prices and availability

Product prices, availability, ingredients, specifications, claims, subscription terms, refund policies, and shipping options can change.

We may not update every product mention immediately.

Merchant responsibility

Purchases are made through third-party merchants, not Viral Vitalism, unless we expressly state otherwise.

Third-party merchants are responsible for order fulfillment, payment processing, shipping, returns, refunds, warranties, product support, and customer service.
