Editorial policy

We write for women in their 40s and 50s who want honest, sourced answers about weight. Our rule is simple: evidence, not willpower — and no recommendation is for sale.

Who we are

Weight Loss Over 40 Tips is an independent editorial site. Articles are written and checked by the Weight Loss Over 40 Tips editorial team. We are not doctors or dietitians, and we add a named professional reviewer to an article only when a qualified person has actually reviewed it.

Independence

• Some links on the site are affiliate links, and we may earn a commission. Commissions never decide what we recommend, how we rank programs or what our verdicts say.
• We take no sponsorship and no paid placements.
• Every partner link or button is followed, in the same place, by the line “We earn a commission if you buy or sign up through our link.” Details: Affiliate disclosure.

Accuracy

• Every number links to its source; how we check is on our Methodology page.
• Each article shows when it was last updated and when its facts were last verified against primary sources.
• Health topics are sensitive. We write carefully, flag small or limited studies, and remind readers that nothing here is medical advice.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it as soon as we can confirm the correct information. When a correction changes a number, a claim or a price, we add a dated note at the end of the article. To report an error, write to info@weightlossover40tips.com.

Not medical advice

Weight changes can have medical causes. Talk to your doctor before making significant changes to your diet, exercise or medication, especially if you take medication or have a health condition.
