Medical & Legal Disclaimer

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

This disclaimer applies to all content on AgePowerfully, including reviews, articles, recommendations, and advice related to supplements and health products. Last Updated: November 2025

Not Medical Advice

The content on AgePowerfully is for educational and informational purposes only. It is NOT intended to be, and should not be interpreted as, medical advice.

Nothing on this website constitutes a medical consultation, diagnosis, treatment recommendation, or prescription. We are not healthcare providers, and our reviews and articles are not substitutes for professional medical guidance.

Consult Your Healthcare Provider

Before starting any new supplement regimen, you should:

  • Consult with your physician or qualified healthcare professional
  • Discuss any pre-existing medical conditions you may have
  • Review all medications and supplements you're currently taking
  • Ask about potential drug-supplement interactions
  • Inform them if you're pregnant, nursing, or planning pregnancy

This is especially important for those with cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, liver disease, kidney disease, or any other chronic health conditions.

No Guarantees or Warranties

We make no guarantees, express or implied, regarding the efficacy, safety, or results of any supplement reviewed on this site. While we strive to provide accurate, research-based information, the effectiveness of supplements can vary significantly from person to person based on genetics, lifestyle, diet, and other individual factors.

Individual Results May Vary

The results discussed in supplement reviews and testimonials represent individual experiences that may not be typical. Factors that influence supplement effectiveness include:

  • Individual genetics and metabolism
  • Overall diet and lifestyle habits
  • Exercise and sleep patterns
  • Stress levels and mental health
  • Age, sex, and body composition
  • Existing medical conditions
  • Current medications and supplements
  • Dosage and duration of use
  • Product quality and formulation
  • Placebo effect

What works well for one person may not work for another, or may work differently. This is normal and expected in supplement science.

Potential Risks & Side Effects

While many supplements are considered safe, all substances carry some potential for adverse effects. These may include:

Common Side Effects

  • Digestive upset
  • Nausea or headaches
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Allergic reactions
  • Skin reactions

Serious Risks

  • Drug interactions
  • Organ damage (liver, kidney)
  • Blood clotting effects
  • Hormonal disruption
  • Contamination or toxicity

While we work to identify and discuss known risks in our reviews, not all potential side effects may be documented. If you experience any unusual symptoms after starting a supplement, discontinue use and contact your healthcare provider immediately.

FDA Disclaimer

These statements and products have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Unlike pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements are not required to undergo FDA approval before being marketed. While manufacturers must ensure products are safe and accurately labeled, the burden of proof regarding safety and efficacy differs from that of prescription medications. AgePowerfully does not hold responsibility for supplement marketing claims made by manufacturers.

Our Methodology & Limitations

While our review process is thorough and research-based, it has inherent limitations:

  • Limited Sample Size: Our personal testing involves one or two individuals, not large clinical populations
  • Short-Term Data: We test for weeks or months; long-term effects may not be apparent
  • Not Peer-Reviewed: Our reviews undergo internal review but are not published in peer-reviewed journals
  • Rapidly Evolving Research: New studies may contradict or refine previous findings
  • Product Variability: Formulations and quality can vary between batches
  • Conflict of Interest: We earn affiliate commissions, which could theoretically influence recommendations

Specific High-Risk Situations

You should NOT use supplements without medical supervision if you:

  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Have cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, or irregular heartbeat
  • Have diabetes or blood sugar management issues
  • Have liver or kidney disease
  • Are scheduled for surgery
  • Take blood thinners or anticoagulants
  • Are on immunosuppressant medications
  • Have a history of allergies or sensitivities
  • Have hormone-sensitive conditions (certain cancers, fibroids)
  • Are under 18 years old

Third-Party Testing & Quality

While we reference third-party testing when available, we do not independently verify all product claims. Third-party testing is not required by law for supplements, so the absence of testing certificates does not automatically mean a product is unsafe. Conversely, the presence of a third-party certificate does not guarantee complete safety or efficacy.

Clicking a link does not constitute an endorsement of that website or its content. Always review the privacy policies and terms of service of external sites you visit.

  • • Knows your complete medical history
  • • Can assess your individual risk factors
  • • Can review all your medications and supplements
  • • Can monitor your health with blood tests if needed
