Legal & disclaimer

Information only. Everything on protocols.club is general information. It is not medical or health advice, and using this site does not create a doctor–patient or any other professional relationship.

Reported, not recommended. Routines are summarised from public sources such as podcasts, books, articles and the person’s own posts. They may be out of date, incomplete or inaccurate, and what suits one person may not suit you.

No endorsement. The people featured have not reviewed or endorsed this site or any product on it.

Your own risk. If you follow any routine or part of one, you do so at your own risk. Talk to your doctor before changing your diet, exercise, sleep, supplements or medication. To the extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any loss, injury or damage arising from use of this site.

In an emergency, contact your local emergency number or go to the nearest emergency department straight away.

Health information and risks

General information only. Routines here are summaries of what people say they do, taken from interviews, podcasts, posts and their own sites. They have not been checked or verified by medical professionals, and they may be out of date: people change their routines, and sources can be edited or removed.

Talk to a doctor first. Before changing your diet, exercise, sleep, supplements or medication, talk to a doctor and get any tests they recommend, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or have a health condition.

Specific risks. Some practices described on this site carry particular risks:

• Breathwork with breath holds can cause fainting. Never do it in or near water, while driving, or standing where a fall could hurt you. Take care if you have heart or lung conditions.
• Cold and heat exposure (cold plunges, cold showers, sauna, cryotherapy) puts strain on the heart and circulation and isn’t suitable for everyone.
• Fasting, skipped meals and restrictive diets (including all-meat diets) can cause side effects and aren’t suitable for everyone, including anyone with a history of disordered eating.
• Supplements can interact with medicines and with each other, and quality varies. We show a dose only where the person stated one. What someone takes is not a recommendation for you. Some, such as melatonin, are prescription-only in some countries, and we leave prescription medicines out entirely.
• Skincare actives such as exfoliating acids can irritate skin. Patch-test, and ask a dermatologist if unsure.
• Sun. Morning-light habits never mean looking directly at the sun.

Brands and ownership. Some products listed are made by companies the people we track own or have invested in. We may not know every relationship.

affiliate disclosure

some links on protocols.club are affiliate links. if you buy through one, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. it never changes what we list: we only show what people actually use. as an amazon associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

supplements, affiliate links and ownership

not medical advice. a supplement in someone’s protocol is what they say they take, not a recommendation for you. talk to your doctor before starting one.

doses. we only show a dose or timing where the person stated one. if there’s no dose, they didn’t give one.

affiliate links. protocols is reader-supported. some product links are affiliate links through amazon (amazon.com, amazon.com.au and other amazon stores), awin (including iherb) and individual brand programs. if you buy through one of these links we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. as an amazon associate we earn from qualifying purchases. we only list products a person has actually said they use, with a source, and commissions never decide what goes on the site.

as named. products are listed as the person named them in their interviews and sources, each linked to where they said it.

our pick. where someone takes something but hasn’t named a brand, we may show “our pick”: a quality product we chose, clearly labelled. it is not a product they said they use, and we may earn a commission on it.

ownership. some products listed are made by companies the people we track own or have invested in. we may not know every relationship.

privacy

what we collect. when you sign up for the weekly email, or ask us to email you a routine or someone’s protocol, we collect your email address and which page or routine you asked from. if you use search to ask us to add someone, we keep the name you asked for, what you searched, the page you were on and, if you give it, your email.

where it’s kept. your details are stored with resend, the service that sends our emails. the site runs on vercel.

what it’s for. we use your email only to send the weekly email, anything you asked for (like a routine or someone’s protocol), and a note when someone you asked us to add is up. if you give your email with a request, you’ll get the weekly email too.

cookies from affiliate links. when you click a shop link, the store or affiliate network (for example amazon or awin) may set a cookie or use similar tech in your browser to record that the visit came from protocols.club, so a purchase can be credited to us. protocols itself doesn’t see what you buy or any of your payment details. you can clear or block these cookies in your browser settings.

we don’t sell your data, and we don’t share it with anyone except the services above, which run the site and send the emails.

unsubscribe. every email has a one-click unsubscribe link at the bottom.
