The Balanced Kitchen is a personal blog written and edited by me. For questions about this blog, please contact me.
Disclosure
This blog accepts forms of cash advertising, sponsorship, paid insertions or other forms of compensation.
This blog abides by word of mouth marketing standards. I believe in honesty of relationship and opinion and so I will make my best efforts to be transparent with you. The compensation received may influence the advertising content, topics or posts made in this blog. That content, advertising space or post will be clearly identified as paid or sponsored content.
The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely my own and will always be honest. I commit to only writing sponsored content for products that I honestly use and which I believe will be of interest to my readers. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party in question.
This blog does not contain any content which might present a conflict of interest.
The Balanced Kitchen is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com. What this means is that if you were to make a purchase through the Amazon links you may see on the site, The Balanced Kitchen would receive a small percentage (with no added cost to you!) of the sale price. I will only share links to products that I use myself (or at least one very similar to it) so that you can be assured that I am only recommending products that I would use myself. Thank you for your support!
