Health and Earth

Health and Earth is not a medical practice, healthcare provider, pharmacy, financial adviser or other regulated professional service unless expressly stated otherwise. 

2. General information only 

The information provided on the Website is for general informational and educational purposes only. 

It is not intended to be, and should not be treated as: 

• Medical advice 

• Diagnosis 

• Treatment 

• A substitute for advice from a qualified healthcare professional 

• Personalised professional advice 

• A guarantee that a particular product, treatment or approach is appropriate for you 

Natural products are not automatically safe or suitable for everyone. 

Individual circumstances, allergies, medical conditions, medications, pregnancy, age and other factors may affect whether a product or approach is appropriate. 

You should obtain appropriate professional advice before making decisions about your health, particularly where you have an existing medical condition, take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are considering a product for a child. 

If you are experiencing symptoms or believe you may have a medical emergency, seek appropriate medical attention rather than relying on information provided on this Website. 

3. Product recommendations 

Health and Earth may discuss, review or recommend products available from third-party businesses. 

Our recommendations are based on information available to us at the time and may reflect factors such as: 

• Product characteristics 

• Ingredients or materials 

• Available information from manufacturers or suppliers 

• Price or value 

• General suitability 

• User experience or other relevant considerations 

However, we cannot guarantee that any particular product will: 

• Be suitable for you 

• Produce a particular result 

• Be free from adverse effects 

• Remain available 

• Remain the same over time 

• Meet your individual needs 

Manufacturers and sellers are responsible for the products they make or sell. 

You should always read the manufacturer's current product information, labels, warnings and instructions before purchasing or using a product. 

4. Health and wellness claims 

We aim to provide accurate and responsible information. 

However, information about natural products, supplements, wellness practices and other health-related subjects can change as new research becomes available. 

You should not rely solely on information published by Health and Earth when making important health decisions. 

We do not guarantee that every statement on the Website is complete, current or applicable to your individual circumstances. 

Where appropriate, we may distinguish between established information, available research, emerging evidence and general wellness information. 

5. Affiliate relationships 

Some links on the Website may be affiliate links. 

If you purchase a product or service after following one of these links, Health and Earth may receive a commission or other benefit from the seller or affiliate network. 

Affiliate relationships do not automatically mean that every product linked to from the Website is suitable for every person. 

Where practical, we aim to make affiliate relationships clear to our readers. 

Our recommendations are not intended to be misleading or deceptive, and we do not knowingly make false claims about products or services. 

6. Third-party websites 

The Website may contain links to third-party websites.

We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, privacy practices, products, services or terms. 

Once you leave the Health and Earth Website, you are subject to the third party's own terms and policies. 

You should carefully review those terms before purchasing a product or providing personal information. 

7. Purchases made through third parties 

Health and Earth generally does not directly sell the products that we recommend through affiliate links. 

When you purchase a product from another business, your purchase is generally a transaction between you and that business. 

The seller is responsible for matters relating to the purchase, including: 

• Product supply 

• Pricing 

• Payment 

• Shipping 

• Returns 

• Refunds 

• Warranties 

• Product quality 

• Product safety

Your legal rights in relation to the purchase may depend on the seller, the product, where the seller is located and applicable consumer law. 

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit rights that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

However, we do not guarantee that Website content will always be: 

• Complete

• Suitable for every purpose 

Prices, availability, ingredients, specifications, product formulations, offers and other information can change without notice. 

Where a purchase decision is involved, you should verify important information directly with the relevant seller or manufacturer before purchasing. 

9. No guarantee of results 

Any examples, experiences, reviews, opinions or outcomes discussed on the Website are not guarantees of what another person will experience. 

Results can vary significantly between individuals. 

Where we discuss potential benefits of a product or approach, this should not be interpreted as a promise that you will experience those benefits.
