Terms and Conditions & SERVICE AGREEMENT

Policy Statement of Metabolism.com, and Metabolink, Inc. / Revised May 2009

Policy Statement.

The goal of metabolism.com (owned and operated by Metabolink, Inc.) is to provide public access to a wide variety of well informed opinions on nutritional and wellness issues. We invite experts to come to our website to share their knowledge and offer information to those who desire it (visitors and members). We encourage visitors and members to interact with the experts and to offer their own points of view and experience, as well. Our featured experts are not employees of Metabolink, Inc, but are independent practitioners of their chosen fields who have come to metabolism.com to interact, help and teach. We do our best to make sure the credentials claimed by our featured experts are valid, but cannot guarantee them. We encourage all visitors and members to take care to assure themselves of the validity of the expert’s credentials, particularly if considering purchasing personal services from them.

Metabolism.com and Metabolink, Inc. stand behind the quality of the website and welcome comments, criticisms and complaints as we attempt to make our website even better and more reliable. All comments can be sent to info@metabolism.com and we will do our best to address them in a timely manner.
