This means brands selling supplements, wellness products, or other health-related items may no longer see key conversion events like purchases and add-to-cart in their Meta ad accounts. In this episode, Eric Dyck chats with Pilothouse Meta experts Taylor Cain, Jocelyn, and Aves to break down what’s happening, what brands should do, and how to stay compliant while still driving results.

How Meta is categorizing health & wellness brands ✅ Workarounds That Work: Using upper-funnel event tracking to maintain ad performance ✅ Creative & Messaging Shifts: Why brands need to sell a lifestyle, not just a product ✅ Long-Term Impact: Will Meta roll out similar restrictions to other industries?
