FREQUENTLY ASKED

What supplement claims are safe in Meta?

Structure/function claims are safe: "supports immune health", "contributes to energy levels". Disease claims ("treats", "cures", "prevents") will get you banned.

How to build a supplements subscription?

Start with Recharge or Seal Subscriptions on Shopify. Offer 15–20% subscribe-and-save. Critical: the post-subscription onboarding email sequence — skip it and churn triples.

Right replenishment email timing?

Calculate: product dose × servings × % taking daily. For 60-serving product: email at Day 45 — 15 days before they run out.
