Affiliate Disclosure

Our Commitment to Transparency

Qi Thrive believes in full transparency. We want you to understand exactly how this website generates revenue and how that affects the content we publish.

Amazon Associates Program

Qi Thrive participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and its international sites. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

When you click an Amazon link on Qi Thriveand complete a purchase within 24 hours, we receive a small commission — typically 1% to 10% of the sale price, depending on the product category. This commission comes from Amazon's marketing budget, not from your pocket — the price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to Amazon.

Our Product Recommendation Policy

We hold ourselves to a clear standard when recommending products:

• Commission does not drive our picks. We recommend products because they genuinely align with the TCM principles discussed in our articles — not because they pay the highest commission rate.
• Research first, link second. Every product recommendation is based on ingredient quality, manufacturer reputation, user reviews, and alignment with classical TCM concepts. We research products before we link to them.
• We turn down offers.We do not accept direct payment from brands for product placement, sponsored posts masquerading as editorial content, or“pay to play”review opportunities.
• Honest pros and cons.Where applicable, we note both strengths and limitations of recommended products. No product is perfect for everyone, and we'll tell you when it isn't.

Other Affiliate Programs

In addition to Amazon, we may participate in other affiliate programs — including iHerb, health supplement retailers, and wellness product brands. Any affiliate relationship will be disclosed here and on the pages where the links appear.

How Affiliate Links Are Marked

Every affiliate link on Qi Thrive includes rel="nofollow sponsored" to tell search engines that the link is commercial in nature. Product recommendation sections are clearly labeled. We never hide affiliate links behind redirects or cloaking.

Creating well-researched, evidence-informed health content takes significant time and effort. Affiliate commissions help us cover operating costs — hosting, research tools, content creation — and keep Qi Thrivefreely accessible to everyone. We believe in the content we create and hope you find enough value in it that you support us by using our links when they're relevant to you.
