Welcome to Pursuing Optimal Health.

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Pursuing Optimal Health website and related content, resources, assessments, downloads, and services provided by Pursuing Optimal Health LLC, located in Oceanside, California, United States (“Pursuing Optimal Health,” “POH,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

1. Educational Purpose

POH provides educational information relating to health, fitness, nutrition, healthy aging, longevity, wellness, testing, supplements, products, and related topics.

POH content is not a substitute for individualized professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Please review our Medical Disclaimer, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

2. No Medical Relationship

Use of POH does not create a doctor-patient, dietitian-patient, therapist-patient, or other licensed healthcare professional relationship.

Information provided through articles, emails, assessments, courses, guides, calculators, or other POH resources should not be interpreted as individualized medical care.

3. Eligibility

This website is intended for individuals legally capable of agreeing to these Terms.

POH is primarily designed for adults.

If you use POH on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

4. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise indicated, content published by POH—including text, graphics, logos, branding, assessments, frameworks, guides, downloads, videos, course materials, photographs, and original website content—is owned by or licensed to Pursuing Optimal Health LLC and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

This may include proprietary names and materials such as the 50+ Health Optimization Score, 50+ Health Optimization Blueprint, and related POH resources.

6. Assessments, Calculators, and Scores

POH may provide assessments, quizzes, calculators, scores, and educational tools, including the 50+ Health Optimization Score.

These tools are intended to provide general educational information and should not be considered medical diagnostic instruments unless expressly stated otherwise.

Results depend partly on information you provide and may be incomplete or inaccurate if that information is incomplete or inaccurate.

Assessment results do not guarantee health outcomes and should not substitute for professional medical evaluation when one is appropriate.

7. Affiliate Relationships

POH participates in affiliate programs.

We may receive compensation when you purchase products or services through certain links.

Our Affiliate Disclosure is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

8. Third-Party Websites, Products, and Services

POH may link to or discuss products and services provided by third parties.

We do not control independent third parties and are not responsible for their websites, products, services, availability, pricing, privacy practices, terms, fulfillment, customer service, warranties, representations, or conduct.

A link does not necessarily constitute an endorsement of every product, claim, policy, or practice of the linked company.

Your transactions with third parties are between you and those third parties.

Review their terms and policies before completing a transaction.

9. Product Information

We make reasonable efforts to provide useful and accurate information, but product formulations, prices, availability, promotional offers, warranties, subscription terms, research, and company policies can change.

Always verify important purchasing information directly with the manufacturer, retailer, or service provider.

10. No Guarantees of Results

Health, fitness, body-composition, and other individual results vary.

POH does not guarantee that using our information, courses, products, recommendations, assessments, or third-party products will produce any particular outcome.

Examples, testimonials, case studies, and personal experiences are illustrative and do not guarantee that you will obtain similar results.

11. Accuracy and Availability

We strive to provide accurate and useful information.

However, we do not warrant that all website content will always be complete, current, error-free, or available without interruption.

Health science, products, regulations, pricing, and other information can change.

We reserve the right to correct, update, modify, or remove content at any time.

12. Purchases From POH

If POH offers paid courses, digital products, memberships, assessments, coaching, or other products or services directly, additional terms, pricing, refund policies, subscription terms, or purchase conditions may be presented at checkout.

Those specific terms supplement these Terms.

If there is a direct conflict concerning a particular transaction, transaction-specific terms presented at purchase will govern that transaction to the extent of the conflict.

13. Testimonials and Personal Stories

Testimonials and personal experiences presented by POH reflect individual experiences.

They are not promises, guarantees, or representations that every person will experience the same outcome.

Individual health and fitness outcomes depend on numerous factors.
