Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 17 May 2026

Natural Health Daily (“NHD”) participates in affiliate programs. This page explains, in plain English, what that means for you as a reader.

What affiliate links are

Some links in NHD articles are affiliate links. If you click one and then buy something on the destination website, the retailer pays NHD a small commission at no extra cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you arrive via an affiliate link or directly.

Which networks we use

We work primarily through two affiliate networks:

• Digistore24 — a global marketplace for digital and supplement vendors. Many of our supplement reviews link to vendor pages via Digistore24.
• AWIN (Affiliate Window) — a major UK and EU affiliate network. As partner brands approve our application, AWIN links may appear in articles where they are editorially relevant.

FTC, ASA, and DSGVO compliance

US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) Code, and the EU’s DSGVO transparency requirements all require us to disclose affiliate relationships clearly. We do this in three places on every article that contains an affiliate link:

1. A coloured callout near the top of the article, before the first affiliate link, stating that affiliate links are present.
2. The link itself uses rel="sponsored noopener" as required by search-engine guidelines.
3. A site-wide disclosure in the footer of every page, linking to this policy.

Editorial independence

Affiliate status does not determine what we cover or what we say about it. We choose the topics, ingredients, and protocols on editorial merit alone. When we evaluate a product:

• If a product we’re affiliated with underperforms in our research or fails our brand-legitimacy check, we say so plainly and do not recommend it.
• If a product we’re not affiliated with is the better answer, we recommend it anyway — without a commission link.
• We never run sponsored content disguised as editorial. Commercial arrangements are always labelled.

How commission revenue is used

Commission revenue keeps the lights on: hosting (Vercel), writing, research access (PubMed, NIH databases), and the editorial review that goes into every article. It does not flow back to advertisers in the form of editorial favours.

Our brand-legitimacy gate

Before any affiliate product appears in an NHD article, it passes a legitimacy check that looks at refund rates, regulatory history (FTC / FDA warnings, lawsuits), Trustpilot and Reddit sentiment, and manufacturer transparency. Products that fail this check are excluded, regardless of how much commission they pay.

Have a concern?

If you believe a product we’ve linked is misrepresented, has a regulatory issue, or shouldn’t be in our catalogue, please write to hello@thenaturalhealthdaily.com. We take these reports seriously and will re-evaluate any product flagged.
