Last Updated: 25 August 2026
Welcome to Healthdictive.
These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Healthdictive website, www.healthdictive.com, including its articles, educational resources, newsletters, forms, social-media content, products, services and any other features we may provide through the website (collectively, the “Services”).
By accessing or using Healthdictive, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the website or its Services.
Healthdictive is based in Nigeria and primarily serves users in Nigeria, while our educational content may also be accessed by people in other countries.
1. About Healthdictive
Healthdictive provides educational information about:
– herbs and medicinal plants;
– herbal remedies and traditional uses;
– natural health and wellness;
– nutrition and healthy living;
– selected health conditions;
– men’s and women’s health;
– blood pressure and cardiovascular health;
– sleep and mental wellness;
– scientific research relating to herbs and natural health; and
– other health-related topics.
Healthdictive may also offer or facilitate the sale of herbs, herbal products, natural products, educational resources, consultations or other related services.
The specific products or services available may change from time to time.
2. Health Information Is for Education, Not Medical Diagnosis
Healthdictive provides health information for general educational and informational purposes only.
Our articles, videos, social-media posts, newsletters, herb profiles, product information and other materials are not intended to:
– diagnose a disease or medical condition;
– replace a consultation with a qualified healthcare professional;
– prescribe medicines or treatments;
– provide individualized medical advice;
– guarantee a particular health outcome; or
– replace emergency medical care.
Information about an herb or natural product does not mean that the herb has been proven to prevent, treat, cure or reverse a disease.
Scientific evidence varies considerably between herbs and health conditions. Some information may be based on traditional use, laboratory research, animal studies, observational studies or human clinical research. These types of evidence should not be treated as equivalent.
Where appropriate, Healthdictive will identify the strength and limitations of available evidence.
3. Do Not Delay Necessary Medical Care
You should not delay seeking medical attention, discontinue prescribed medication or change a treatment plan because of information obtained from Healthdictive.
If you have a serious, persistent, worsening or unexplained symptom, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Seek urgent or emergency medical care when appropriate.
This is especially important for conditions such as:
– chest pain;
– severe difficulty breathing;
– stroke symptoms;
– severe allergic reactions;
– very high or dangerously low blood pressure;
– severe bleeding;
– loss of consciousness;
– severe abdominal pain;
– pregnancy-related emergencies; or
– other potentially life-threatening conditions.
4. Herbal and Natural-Product Information
Herbs are not automatically safe simply because they are natural.
Herbs and herbal products may:
– cause side effects;
– interact with prescription or non-prescription medicines;
– affect blood pressure or blood sugar;
– affect bleeding or blood clotting;
– affect the liver or kidneys;
– cause allergic reactions;
– be unsuitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding; or
– be unsuitable for people with certain medical conditions.
Do not assume that an herb is safe for you because it is described as traditional, natural, popular or commonly used.
Where appropriate, consult a pharmacist, doctor or other qualified healthcare professional before using an herb or herbal product, particularly if you:
– take prescription medicines;
– are pregnant or breastfeeding;
– have a chronic medical condition;
– are preparing for surgery;
– are elderly;
– are using herbs for a child; or
– are taking several medicines or supplements.
5. No Guarantee of Treatment Outcomes
Healthdictive does not guarantee that any herb, food, supplement, product, preparation, lifestyle practice or service discussed or offered through the website will:
– prevent a disease;
– treat a disease;
– cure a disease;
– improve a symptom;
– produce a particular health result; or
– work for every individual.
Individual responses vary.
Testimonials, reviews or personal experiences published on Healthdictive are individual experiences and should not be interpreted as guarantees of similar results.
6. Accuracy and Updating of Information
We make reasonable efforts to provide useful, accurate and current information.
However, medical and scientific knowledge changes over time. New research may alter our understanding of a herb, product, disease or treatment.
Healthdictive therefore does not guarantee that every item of information on the website will always be:
– complete;
– current;
– error-free;
– suitable for every individual; or
– applicable to every situation.
We may update, correct, modify, replace or remove content when appropriate.
The presence of a publication date does not necessarily mean that the article has been medically reviewed or updated on that date unless this is specifically stated on the page.
7. Medical Review and Expert Content
Where indicated, some Healthdictive content may be written, reviewed or checked by pharmacists, healthcare professionals, researchers or other subject-matter experts.
The identification of an author or reviewer does not mean that the content constitutes individualized medical advice or creates a healthcare provider-patient relationship.
Healthdictive may use scientific literature, government resources, professional guidance, textbooks, traditional knowledge and other sources when developing content.
The level and type of available evidence may differ from one article to another.
8. Use of the Website

11. Health Questions and Contact Forms
Healthdictive may provide contact forms or other methods through which users can submit health-related questions.
Submitting a question does not create a doctor-patient, pharmacist-patient or other healthcare-provider relationship.
We cannot guarantee that every question will receive a response or that any response will be individualized medical advice.
Do not use website forms or ordinary email to report a medical emergency.
12. Products and Herbal Products
Healthdictive may offer herbs, herbal products or other natural products for sale.
Product descriptions are provided to help customers make informed purchasing decisions. We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product information is accurate, but product availability, packaging, appearance, specifications and other details may change.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, the sale of an herb or natural product should not be interpreted as a representation that the product can diagnose, prevent, treat or cure a disease.
Products should be used only as directed on the applicable product information or packaging.
Customers are responsible for providing accurate information when placing an order.
13. Product Availability and Pricing
Products are subject to availability.
Healthdictive reserves the right to:

Where an order cannot be fulfilled after payment has been received, we will communicate with the customer regarding the available options, including refund where applicable.

You are responsible for checking that your order information is correct before submitting it.
Healthdictive is not responsible for delays or failed delivery resulting from inaccurate or incomplete information supplied by the customer.
15. Delivery
Delivery arrangements, charges, estimated delivery times and available locations may vary depending on the product and destination.
Delivery times are estimates and may be affected by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including:
– courier delays;
– traffic;
– weather;
– public holidays;
– incorrect delivery information;
– security restrictions; or
– other unforeseen circumstances.
Specific delivery terms may be provided during the ordering process or in a separate delivery policy.
16. Returns, Refunds and Cancellations
Returns, refunds and order cancellations are subject to Healthdictive’s applicable Refund and Return Policy.
Because herbs and other health-related products may have safety, hygiene, storage and quality considerations, not every product may be eligible for return after delivery or opening.
Customers should inspect their order promptly and contact Healthdictive as soon as possible if:
– the wrong product was supplied;
– the product is damaged;
– the product is defective;
– the order is incomplete; or
– there is another genuine problem with the order.
Nothing in this section is intended to exclude any consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.
17. Payments
Payment methods available to customers may change from time to time.
You agree to provide accurate payment information and authorize Healthdictive or its authorized payment provider to process the amount applicable to your purchase.
We do not intentionally request or store your full payment-card credentials through ordinary website forms.
Where payment processing is handled by a third-party payment provider, that provider’s applicable terms and privacy practices may also apply.
18. Third-Party Websites and Services
Healthdictive may link to websites, scientific databases, social-media platforms, payment providers, delivery providers or other third-party services.
These links are provided for convenience or informational purposes.
Healthdictive does not control third-party websites and is not responsible for their:
– content;
– accuracy;
– availability;
– security;
– privacy practices;
– products; or
– services.
Your use of a third-party website is subject to that website’s own terms and policies.
19. Advertising, Sponsorships and Affiliate Relationships
Healthdictive may, now or in the future, display advertising, sponsored content or affiliate links.
Where applicable, we will make reasonable efforts to identify commercial relationships clearly.
The presence of advertising or an affiliate relationship does not automatically mean that Healthdictive endorses every claim made by an advertiser or third party.
Health information should be evaluated based on the available evidence rather than advertising claims.
20. Privacy
Your use of Healthdictive is also subject to our Privacy Policy.
The Privacy Policy explains how we may collect, use, store and protect personal information submitted through the website.
Please do not submit unnecessary sensitive health information through public comments, social-media posts or ordinary website forms.
