Aviso legal

Last updated: August 21, 2026

This Legal Notice applies to the BariatricPal website, the products we sell, and the content we publish. It works together with our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Return Policy. Please read it before you use this site or our products.

1. FDA statement

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

Dietary supplements are regulated as foods, not as drugs. Product categories differ, and the product label controls. Topical wellness patches are not described as dietary supplements or medical devices unless the product label specifically identifies them that way. Nothing on this site should be read as a statement that any product we sell is approved, cleared, certified, licensed, or endorsed by the FDA or by any other government agency, or that any such agency has reviewed or verified our products or our statements about them. We make no claim of FDA registration, approval, or clearance for any product.

Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet, for a healthy lifestyle, or for care from a qualified healthcare professional.

2. No medical advice

BariatricPal is a retailer of vitamins, protein products, and bariatric friendly foods. We are not a medical practice, a pharmacy, a clinic, or a provider of healthcare services, and no one on our team is acting as your healthcare provider.

Everything on this site, including product descriptions, articles, guides, blog posts, recipes, comparison charts, email and text messages, social media content, and anything our customer service team tells you, is general information for educational purposes only. It is not medical, nutritional, pharmaceutical, or professional advice, it is not a diagnosis, it is not a treatment plan, and it does not create a provider and patient relationship of any kind.

Always talk to a qualified healthcare professional, such as your physician, surgeon, pharmacist, or registered dietitian, before you start, stop, or change any supplement, diet, or exercise regimen. That is especially important if you have had, or are preparing for, bariatric or other surgery, are pregnant or nursing, take prescription or over the counter medication, have a diagnosed medical condition, or are experiencing symptoms of any kind.

Never disregard professional medical advice, and never delay seeking it, because of something you read on this site. If you think you may be having a medical emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number, or go to the nearest emergency room.

2.1 General wellness, not treatment of medical conditions

We describe our products in terms of general wellness and nutritional support, for example supporting nutrient intake as part of an overall diet. We do not offer, and you should not read, any description on this site as a statement that a product treats, relieves, manages, reverses, cures, or prevents any symptom, disease, injury, or diagnosed medical condition, or that it is an appropriate substitute for a therapy your clinician has prescribed.

If you have a diagnosed medical condition, or if you are experiencing symptoms of any kind, that is a matter for your clinician, not for a product page. Bring the specific product and its full ingredient list to your clinician and let them decide whether it fits your care plan, your medications, and your lab results.

2.2 Ingredients, allergens, and interactions

Read the full label on every product before you use it. Ingredients, allergen statements, and manufacturing facility disclosures come from the manufacturer and can change without notice, so the physical label that arrives with your order is the authoritative source, not this website. If you have a food allergy or a sensitivity, verify the label yourself before use. Supplements can interact with prescription and over the counter medications and can affect laboratory test results.

2.3 If you have had bariatric surgery

Bariatric surgery changes how your body handles food, fluid, and nutrients, and nutrient needs after surgery differ by procedure, by how long ago you had it, and by your own lab results. Your surgical team and your dietitian set your supplementation plan, not a website and not a product label.

We sell products formulated for people who follow a post surgical eating pattern. Selling them is not a recommendation that any specific product, dose, or combination is right for you. Bring the label to your bariatric team, follow the plan they give you, and keep up with the lab work they order. If your labs show that you are not meeting your targets, tell your clinician and let them adjust your plan rather than adjusting it yourself based on anything you read here.

3. Individual results vary

We make no promise of any particular outcome. Individual results vary, and they vary a great deal. Outcomes depend on factors we do not control, including your starting point, your overall diet, your activity level, your genetics, your age, your medications, other health conditions, how consistently you use a product, and whether you follow the directions on the label.

Testimonials, reviews, before and after photographs, and success stories on this site are the experiences of individual customers. They are not typical, they are not a guarantee, they are not clinical evidence, and they are not a promise that you will have the same experience. Where a person received a product without charge, a discount, or other compensation in connection with a review, we disclose that in accordance with Federal Trade Commission guidance.

References to research, studies, or ingredient science on this site are provided for general information about an ingredient. They are not claims that our finished product produces a therapeutic result, and study results do not transfer automatically to any individual.

4. Product images, labels, and packaging may vary

Product photographs, illustrations, and renderings on this site are for identification and are not exact representations. Color, size, packaging design, label artwork, container shape, count, and net weight may differ from what is pictured. Manufacturers change formulations, labels, and packaging without notice, and we may ship a current package that does not match an older photo.

Nutrition and Supplement Facts panels, ingredient lists, allergen statements, serving sizes, and directions may be updated by the manufacturer at any time. Always read and follow the label on the product you actually receive. Where this website and the physical label disagree, the physical label controls.

5. Accuracy of information, pricing, and typographical errors

We work to keep product descriptions, availability, and pricing on this site accurate and current, but errors happen. Descriptions, specifications, images, availability, and prices may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, and may be out of date.

We reserve the right to correct any error, inaccuracy, or omission at any time without prior notice, including after you have submitted an order. If an item is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information, we may refuse or cancel the order, whether or not the order has been confirmed and your payment method charged. If we cancel an order for this reason, we will notify you and refund the full amount charged. A listed price is an invitation to purchase, not a binding offer, until we accept and fulfill the order.

Strikethrough, compare at, and reference prices are provided for comparison only and are based on historical pricing, manufacturer suggested pricing, or general market pricing. They do not represent a price at which the item necessarily sold recently or in your area. We do not guarantee that our price is the lowest available anywhere.

6. Third party trademarks

BariatricPal and the BariatricPal logo, together with our other product names, designs, and slogans, are trademarks or registered trademarks of their owner and may not be used without prior written permission.

All other brand names, product names, logos, and trademarks appearing on this site are the property of their respective owners. Where we sell or reference products made by other companies, we identify those products by their trademarks solely to describe what we are selling. No affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, certification, or approval by any trademark owner is claimed or implied, and reference to a third party mark does not indicate any relationship with that company beyond a normal supplier or reseller relationship where one exists.

7. Intellectual property and copyright

The content on this site, including text, graphics, photographs, illustrations, video, audio, page layout, product copy, guides, and software, is owned by us or by our licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, trade dress, and other intellectual property laws. The compilation, selection, and arrangement of that content is separately protected.

You may view, download, and print pages from this site for your own personal, non commercial use. You may not otherwise copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, license, modify, frame, scrape, data mine, or create derivative works from any part of this site or use it to train a machine learning model, without our prior written permission.

7.1 Copyright complaints and DMCA notices

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect users of this site to do the same. If you believe material on this site infringes a copyright you own or control, send a written notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to the designated agent listed below. Your notice must include:

• identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed;
• identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it, such as the page address;
• your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
• a statement that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the owner's behalf; and
• your physical or electronic signature.

If you believe your material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter notification containing the corresponding information required by the DMCA. Submitting a knowingly false notice or counter notification may expose you to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees. We terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

8. Third party links and content

This site may link to, or display content from, websites and services we do not control, including retailer listings, social media, review platforms, manufacturer pages, and payment providers. Those links are offered for convenience and information only. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability, security, products, or privacy practices of any third party site, and a link is not an endorsement. Review the terms and privacy policy of any third party site before you use it.

Reviews, testimonials, forum posts, social media comments, and other user submitted content reflect the views of the people who wrote them and not the views of BariatricPal. We do not verify, adopt, or endorse statements made by customers, and such statements are not a claim by us about any product.

9. Accessibility

We are committed to making this site usable by everyone, including people with disabilities, and we work toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. Accessibility is an ongoing effort, and parts of the site, particularly content supplied by third parties, may not yet fully conform.

Email store@BariatricPal.com or call (855) 957-2725, Daily, 8:00 AM to 12:00 AM Eastern Time. Tell us the page address, what you were trying to do, and the assistive technology you use, if any.

This Legal Notice and your use of this site are governed by the governing law, venue, dispute resolution, arbitration, and class action waiver provisions set out in our Terms of Service, which are incorporated here by reference. Please read that section carefully, because it affects your legal rights, including how disputes are resolved and where they may be brought.

Nothing in this Legal Notice limits any right or remedy that cannot be limited or waived under applicable law, including consumer protection laws in your state.

11. No warranty beyond what the law requires

Except for warranties that cannot be disclaimed under applicable law, and except as expressly stated in our Return Policy, this site and its content are provided on an as is and as available basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. The limitations of liability in our Terms of Service apply to this Legal Notice.

We may update this Legal Notice at any time. Changes take effect when posted, and we will revise the date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the site after we post a change means you accept the updated notice. Please review this page periodically.
