Can you advertise supplements and weight-loss products on Google AI?
Yes, with conditions. Google has no general supplements category, but its unapproved-substances rule bans listed substances, ephedra, hCG for weight loss and products that imply prescription-drug effects. Other supplements fall under Google’s general policies.

Supplements and weight loss on other AI channels
The same category is treated differently on each channel. A rule on one channel doesn’t apply to the others.
| Channel | Treatment | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| ChatGPT | Allowed with conditions | US approved advertisers; no diet pills or unsupported claims.[2] |
| Google AI (this page) | Allowed with conditions | Listed substances and hCG for weight loss banned.[1] |
| Gravity | No category rule | No category rule; general policies apply. |
“No category rule” means the provider has no rule for this category; its general policies still apply.
How Admux screens it
Admux screens each campaign against the rules of every channel you select, before anything is submitted. Each channel is checked on its own, so a rule on one channel never blocks the others.
For Google AI, Admux asks for the ingredient list and support for any health or weight-loss claim before submitting. Final approval is always Google’s: Admux can’t grant permission a channel doesn’t offer.
