Health by Research is committed to transparency about how our website is funded and how any commercial relationships work. Please read this page to understand our advertising and affiliate practices.
Our current status
At this time, Health by Research is focused on building a library of independent, evidence-based content, and we are not yet running affiliate links or paid advertising. This page describes how we will handle those relationships as they are introduced, so our standards are clear from the outset.
Affiliate relationships
In the future, Health by Research may earn a commission when you purchase products or services through links on our site, at no additional cost to you. These commissions, if introduced, would help support our research and keep our content free to read.
Independence always comes first
Affiliate or advertising relationships never influence our editorial recommendations. We evaluate products based on research and merit, not on commission rates or advertising spend. Where we have a financial relationship with a brand we cover, we will disclose it clearly on the relevant page.
No manufacturer affiliation
Unless explicitly stated, Health by Research is not owned by, operated by, or affiliated with the manufacturers of the products we discuss. Brand names and trademarks mentioned on this site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and editorial purposes only.
Sponsored content
Should we ever publish sponsored or paid content, it will be clearly labeled as such so you can always tell the difference between independent editorial content and paid placements.
Product partnerships and affiliate relationships
Health by Research sometimes partners with supplement brands we have reviewed and believe meet our quality standards. In particular, we work with Dear Apothecary, and some of our articles feature their products and link to their store. If you buy through one of our links, we may earn a commission, at no additional cost to you. These relationships never change our honest assessment. We only feature products we would stand behind, we base our reviews on real product information and published evidence, and we tell you plainly what a product can and cannot do. Our editorial opinions are always our own.
