Terms of Use

What using Biofoundations means

Reading Biofoundations means you accept these terms and understand that the site is a source of general reading on natural health, brain health and healthy aging, not a clinic. Questions can be sent to [email protected].

Not medical advice

Articles here reflect general information and editorial judgment. They are not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and they do not create a doctor-patient relationship. Bodies and conditions differ, so what suits one reader may be unsuitable for another. Speak with a qualified health professional before changing medication, starting a supplement or herbal product, altering your diet substantially, or beginning a new exercise routine, especially if you are pregnant, older, managing a condition or taking prescription drugs. Natural products can interact with medicines. If you notice sudden confusion, memory loss, weakness or any other urgent symptom, seek medical help immediately and do not rely on a web article.

Ownership of content

The text, layout and original material on Biofoundations belong to the operator or are used with permission. Short quotations with a clear credit to Biofoundations are fine, and so is sharing a link to an article. Reposting whole pieces or building them into a paid product needs the operator’s written consent.

Acceptable use

Please do not probe the site for weaknesses, flood it with scripted requests, plant harmful code or use the contact address for mass mailings. Using Biofoundations to harass others or to break the law is not allowed. Access may be restricted where necessary to protect the site and its readers.

Messages and submissions

If you send in a correction, question or story idea, you are saying that it is yours to share. We may read it and draw on it when improving articles on these topics, though we are not obliged to answer or print it. Please do not send personal medical records.

Advertising, affiliate links and outside sites

Biofoundations may carry advertising and affiliate links, which can earn the operator a small commission at no added cost to you. These do not change what an article concludes. Pages may point to retailers of supplements or health gear, research databases, health agencies or other publications. Those sites are outside our control, and we do not vouch for their claims, prices or products. Before relying on a product page or a health claim found there, check the ingredients, the evidence cited and whether your own clinician agrees.

Warranties and liability

Biofoundations is offered in its current form, without a promise that it will always be available. As far as the law permits, the operator does not promise that articles are complete, current or free of error, and is not liable for loss or harm arising from use of the site or reliance on its health content. Rights you hold under mandatory law, and any liability that the law does not allow to be excluded, remain intact.

Changes and severability

These terms and the site may be revised from time to time, and the revised terms take effect when posted. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect.
