Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 16 August 2026

Martin Health Media publishes free information about health, nutrition, healthy ageing, menopause, weight management, fasting, natural wellbeing, products and related topics.

Some pages may contain affiliate links or other commercial relationships. This page explains what that means and how those relationships are handled.

An affiliate link is a link to another company’s website that can identify that a visitor was referred by Martin Health Media.

If you follow an affiliate link and subsequently make a qualifying purchase or take another qualifying action, Martin Health Media may receive a commission or other compensation.

This normally does not increase the price you pay.

Affiliate Relationships Do Not Determine Our Conclusions

The possibility of earning a commission does not mean that a product automatically receives a positive recommendation.

Martin Health Media aims to assess products and services on their usefulness, features, available evidence, value and relevance to readers.

Where an article contains criticism, limitations or reasons why a product may not be appropriate, the existence of an affiliate relationship will not prevent those points from being included.

Reviews and Recommendations

Some articles may review, compare or discuss commercial products and services.

A recommendation should not be interpreted as a guarantee that a product will be suitable for you or produce a particular result.

This is particularly important with products connected with health, nutrition, supplements and weight management.

Individual circumstances vary, and health-related purchasing decisions should be made with appropriate care.

How Affiliate Relationships Are Disclosed

Where Martin Health Media may receive compensation from links contained within an article, we aim to make that commercial relationship clear to readers.

A disclosure may state, for example:

“This article contains affiliate links. If you make a purchase through one of these links, Martin Health Media may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.”

A link to this full Affiliate Disclosure may also be provided for further information.

This approach reflects regulatory guidance that commercial relationships should be disclosed clearly rather than hidden from readers. The FTC, for example, says affiliate relationships should be disclosed clearly and conspicuously and generally recommends placing the disclosure close to the recommendation. UK competition authorities likewise require advertising and marketing within articles and blogs to be clearly identifiable.

Martin Health Media also links to external sources for research, evidence, further reading and general reference.

These may include universities, scientific journals, government organisations, health organisations and other publications.

The presence of an external link does not automatically mean Martin Health Media receives compensation from it.

If Martin Health Media publishes sponsored content, receives payment specifically for coverage, or receives a product or service under circumstances requiring disclosure, the relevant commercial relationship should be clearly identified.

Receiving a product free of charge does not guarantee favourable coverage.

Health Products and Supplements

An affiliate relationship should never be interpreted as medical endorsement.

Products discussed on Martin Health Media are not substitutes for appropriate professional healthcare.

Before using supplements or making significant changes relating to your health, particularly if you have an existing medical condition or take medication, consider discussing the decision with an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Please also read our Medical Disclaimer.
