Transparency About Our Recommendations
Tim’s Health Tips is committed to providing you with honest, evidence-based health information. This affiliate disclosure explains how we maintain that trust while recommending products that can help you implement the advice in our articles.
What We Do
Some of the links in our articles are affiliate links. This means we may earn a small commission if you make a purchase through these links, at no extra cost to you. These commissions help us maintain and improve this site so we can continue publishing free health content for seniors.
Importantly: We only recommend products we believe are genuinely useful for the health topics we cover. We do not recommend products simply because they pay us a commission. Your health and trust come first.
How We Choose What to Recommend
Our recommendations are based on:
- Scientific evidence – We prioritize products backed by peer-reviewed research
- Relevance to the article topic – Links appear in sections where they directly address what you’re reading
- Quality and safety – We favor established brands with strong safety records and customer reviews
- Personal relevance – As a retired science teacher and health advocate, I recommend products I would use myself or suggest to family members
Which Products We Link To
We primarily link to:
- Amazon (affiliate program) – for vitamins, supplements, home health monitors, and fitness equipment
- Other retailers – occasionally for products not available through our primary affiliate partners
What This Means for You
✓ No cost to you – Using our affiliate links costs you nothing; you pay the same price you would pay anywhere else
✓ Your trust matters – We will never recommend a product solely for commission. If we recommend something, we believe it’s worth your consideration
✓ You’re in control – You’re free to search elsewhere. These links are a convenience, not a requirement
✓ Full transparency – Every article that contains affiliate links is labeled with “This article contains affiliate links”
Questions?
