Affiliate Disclosure

Some links on this website earn us a small commission if you click and make a purchase — at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products we genuinely believe in. This page explains exactly how that works.

1. Who we are

The Healthy Dietetics (thehealthydietetics.com) is an independent blog dedicated to balanced diet, nutrition science, and wellness strategies. The site is owned and operated by an individual content creator based in Ontario, Canada.

2. What is affiliate marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a common and legal way for website owners to earn income by recommending products or services. When you click a specially tracked link on this site and complete a qualifying purchase, we receive a small commission from the retailer or brand — at no additional cost to you. You pay the same price you would pay going directly to the website.

3. Disclosure under Canadian and U.S. law

This disclosure is made in compliance with the following regulations and guidelines:

  • Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) and the Competition Act (R.S.C., 1985, c. C-34), which require honest and transparent representation in commercial communications.
  • Canada’s Competition Bureau guidelines on influencer marketing and endorsements, which require clear disclosure of any material connection between a content creator and a brand.
  • U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 C.F.R. Part 255), which require clear and conspicuous disclosure of material connections when content is accessible to U.S. readers.

Because this website is accessible globally, including to readers in the United States, we comply with both Canadian and FTC disclosure standards.

Key principle: Whenever a post, article, or page on this site contains affiliate links or has been sponsored, we disclose it clearly — either at the top of that page or within the content near the relevant link. You should never have to guess whether we have a financial relationship with a brand we mention.

4. Affiliate programs we participate in

We currently participate in, or may in the future participate in, affiliate programs including but not limited to:

  • Amazon Associates (Canada) — associates.amazon.ca. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
  • Health and nutrition supplement programs (e.g., Puritan’s Pride, Nature’s Sunshine, and similar brands).
  • Meal planning and diet app programs (e.g., BeyondBody, Cronometer, and similar services).
  • Wellness challenge programs (e.g., HealthyWage and similar platforms).
  • Organic grocery and food delivery services (e.g., Thrive Market and similar brands).
  • Other health, fitness, and nutrition-related brands that align with the mission of this site.

This list may be updated over time as we join new programs. The absence of a specific program from this list does not mean we are not affiliated with it — when in doubt, assume any product or service link may be an affiliate link.

5. How to identify affiliate links

Affiliate links on this site may appear as:

  • Hyperlinked text within articles (e.g., “click here to check the price on Amazon”)
  • Product recommendation boxes or cards
  • Buttons labelled “Check Price,” “Buy Now,” or “Learn More”
  • Image links associated with product reviews

Posts that contain affiliate links will typically carry a notice at or near the top stating: “This post contains affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you purchase through our links, at no extra cost to you.”

6. Our editorial standards

Our content is written and published based on genuine research, nutritional science, and the honest opinions of the author. Participation in an affiliate program does not influence our editorial content in the following ways:

  • We do not write positive reviews in exchange for commissions.
  • We do not recommend products we have not researched or would not personally use.
  • We do not alter or suppress negative information about a product because of an affiliate relationship.
  • Brands do not have editorial control over content published on this site.

The commission we may earn helps fund the time and resources required to research, write, and maintain this website. It allows us to continue providing free content to our readers.

7. Health and medical disclaimer

The content on The Healthy Dietetics is intended for general informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this site constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional or registered dietitian before making changes to your diet, starting a supplement regimen, or following any health program discussed on this site.

The fact that a product is mentioned or linked on this site is not an endorsement of its medical claims, and we make no guarantee regarding the results any individual may experience from using a product.

8. No additional cost to you

We want to be absolutely clear: clicking an affiliate link on this site does not increase the price you pay. In many cases, affiliate programs may offer exclusive discounts or promotional pricing through tracked links. Your purchase price is the same as, or lower than, the price you would pay by navigating to the retailer directly.

9. Third-party websites

Clicking an affiliate link will take you to a third-party website. Once you leave thehealthydietetics.com, you are subject to that website’s own privacy policy, terms of service, and any cookies or tracking they may place on your device. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party site.

10. Changes to this disclosure

We may update this Affiliate Disclosure from time to time to reflect changes in our affiliate partnerships or applicable regulations. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
