Independence from NewSelf
en-newself.com maintains editorial independence from NewSelf despite our affiliate commission relationship. NewSelf does not review, approve, or influence our content before publication. All editorial decisions — including what to criticize, which regulatory actions to cover, and which review scores to include — are made by our editorial team without input from NewSelf. The February 2026 FDA warning letter appears prominently across our site not because it helps affiliate conversion, but because it is material information every prospective patient deserves before making a financial commitment.
Clinical Sourcing Standards
Every clinical efficacy claim on this site is sourced to a named, peer-reviewed publication. We do not cite press releases, company-produced white papers, or promotional materials as evidence of clinical outcomes. The 14.9% average weight loss figure for semaglutide is sourced to STEP-1 (NEJM, 2021). The 22.5% for tirzepatide is sourced to SURMOUNT-1 (NEJM, 2022). These citations appear in our full clinical sources page. We distinguish clearly between what trials show and what NewSelf's marketing claims.
Review Methodology
Our NewSelf assessment is based on: official product pages and Terms of Service, regulatory filings (including the FDA warning letter), published independent editorial reviews (AllyRx 68/100 editorial, 2.7/5 user score), verified Trustpilot reviews, community forum analysis (Reddit, consumer forums), and documented patient experiences. We do not accept sponsored placements, sponsored review packages, or payment from NewSelf to alter our editorial coverage.
Pricing Accuracy
We verify NewSelf pricing against the product pages, the homepage, and third-party audit sources (AllyRx). We prominently note all pricing discrepancies and recommend readers confirm their checkout price directly. We do not display outdated pricing as current without a verification date. Our cost guide is dated and updated when pricing changes are identified.
Corrections Policy
If you identify a factual error — a wrong price, an outdated regulatory status, a misattributed clinical figure — contact us. We review correction requests within 5 business days and issue corrections with an update note when warranted. We do not silently delete inaccurate content — we correct and note the change.
Affiliate Disclosure
We earn affiliate commissions from NewSelf program enrollments. Full details at our affiliate disclosure page. FTC guidelines (16 C.F.R. § 255) require disclosure of material connections between reviewers and commercial products — we comply with this on every page containing affiliate links.
