 Domestic orders are shipped by UPS Ground in most cases. UPS does not deliver to P.O. boxes so you must either list a valid street address with your order OR choose USPS Priority Mail for P.O. Box delivery.

- We do NOT request or require a signature for UPS deliveries, but we cannot force the driver to leave the package if no one is home. If you live in a relatively low crime area and the risk is small, the driver will usually leave the package at your door or other safe area, but it is solely up to your UPS driver's discretion whether or not to require a signature. This also applies to any special shipping instructions that you have asked us to include on your shipping label.
- UPS does not deliver on weekends or holidays. Do not include these days when estimating your expected delivery date.
- There is no guarantee that your order will go out the day you order. If you have specified a One, Two, or Three Day delivery and are placing the order after 12:00 noon EST (9:00 AM PST), it is likely your order will be shipped the following business day.

This could be days or weeks. We cannot help speed up this process. Sorry.

| International Shipping Information |
|
For shipments to all other countries, the following rules and restrictions apply:
- Do not order items that are illegal to import into your country. Laws are different in every country and we cannot keep up with them all. It is your responsibility to check with your Customs office to see if your country permits the shipment of our products to your country.
- If the package is seized by Customs for any reason and we do not receive the package back, we will not issue you a refund. If we do receive the package back after being seized and the products are in perfect condition, we will credit you the product cost, but you are still responsible for the shipping charges.
- Prepayment is required. Payment must be by credit card, US or International Money Order, or personal check drawn on a US bank.
- You pay shipping charges based on the weight of the package and the destination. The $4.95 standard shipping charge does not apply to international orders. Shipping by air to most other countries can be very expensive. Shipping charges alone are sometimes 50% to 100% of the total cost of the products. Obviously, small bottles are cheaper to ship than heavy nutrition bars and protein powders. As you add items to the shopping cart, you will be presented with the shipping options and charges. Important: If you write to us or order from us, but do not receive a reply back from us, then there is most likely some problem with your email address. We have received many email messages that we reply to, but - for whatever reason - the message can not make it through. We have no other way way to contact you, so please make sure your email delivery is working properly and that you have given us a correct email address before complaining that we are not replying. In any case where you do not hear back from us, please call us at 1-518-464-0765.
- You can add items to your shopping cart which displays the total and you can see the shipping charges prior to sending the order to us. We reserve the right to insure the package. You will not incur an additional charge for insurance above what is presented through the online ordering process. We believe our online order form to be accurate in computing shipping charges, but we will not be held responsible for errors in the shipping charge calculation. If we find it to be incorrect after receiving your order, we reserve the right to correct the charge and inform you by email.
- Please allow 2 weeks for delivery by International Airmail. IMPORTANT: This does not include any time that your country's Customs office may hold the package which happens frequently. If you have not received your package after the allowed period, check with your Customs office (if possible) to track it down. There is nothing we can do to speed up this process. You can choose to have your order shipped by Federal Express International Priority or UPS Worldwide Saver service for faster delivery (two or three days) if you would like. This shipping charge, if available for your destination, will be displayed when you view your shopping cart contents.
- If you choose UPS Worldwide Saver or Federal Express International Priority shipping service, you will be emailed a URL that can be used to track your shipment.
- For orders weighing 50 lbs. or more, FedEx International Economy is available.
- You are responsible for any duties or taxes that may apply. We do not collect any duties or taxes from you and do not know how much they will cost you. Check with your own country. We report the exact amount of the sale on the Customs form. Please do not ask us to claim less than the actual sale amount.
- For a description of the package contents on the Customs form, we claim "Food supplements - for personal use only". Please do not ask us to claim a "gift" or other incorrect description.
- Some countries allow for importation of otherwise disallowed products "for personal use only", but not for resale. Check with your Customs office.
- All prices are listed in US currency. If you want to determine how much that is equivalent to in your country's currency, you can use our Currency Converter.
- We reserve the right to decline an order for any reason.
