Health Disclaimer

Last Updated: February 2026

Important: Please Read Carefully

SimplyNourished provides educational information about nutrition, physiology, and lifestyle topics. This disclaimer is essential for understanding the scope and limitations of our content.

1. Educational Content Only

All content on SimplyNourished is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not medical advice, dietary prescription, health guidance, or any form of professional consultation. The information is intended to help you understand nutrition and biological processes, not to direct your personal health decisions.

2. Not a Substitute for Professional Advice

This site is NOT a substitute for:

  • Medical diagnosis or treatment from a qualified doctor
  • Personalised nutrition guidance from a registered dietitian
  • Mental health or psychological support from a qualified professional
  • Physical therapy or fitness coaching from a qualified practitioner
  • Any other professional health or wellness service

3. No Personalised Assessment

We do not provide personalised assessment of your health, nutrition, or circumstances. General educational content cannot account for your individual factors including health conditions, medications, allergies, genetic predispositions, activity level, food preferences, cultural context, or life circumstances. What is appropriate for one person may be unsuitable or even harmful for another.

4. Individual Variation

Human physiology and response to diet, exercise, and lifestyle varies significantly between individuals. General statements about nutrition apply to population trends, not necessarily to any specific person. Your individual response to dietary or lifestyle changes depends on factors including genetics, health status, microbiota composition, metabolic function, and many variables we may not fully understand.

5. No Treatment Claims

SimplyNourished does not claim to treat, cure, diagnose, mitigate, or prevent any disease or health condition. The site does not claim to improve health outcomes, change body composition, increase performance, or produce any specific result. The information is not intended to replace diagnosis or treatment of medical conditions.

6. Research Complexity

While our content draws from published research, nutrition science is complex and evolving. Individual studies may have limitations, conflicting findings may exist, and our understanding changes over time. Simplified explanations, while accurate in principle, may omit nuances present in primary research. We cannot guarantee that all content is completely current or accounts for the latest scientific developments.

7. When to Seek Professional Help

Please consult a qualified healthcare professional if you:

  • Have existing medical conditions
  • Take medications (dietary changes can interact with medications)
  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Are planning significant dietary changes
  • Experience persistent digestive, metabolic, or health issues
  • Have concerns about your health
  • Seek personalised guidance on nutrition or lifestyle
  • Are considering any dietary approach for specific health goals

8. Vulnerable Populations

This site is not appropriate as a primary information source for individuals in vulnerable populations, including children, adolescents, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, elderly individuals, or people with eating disorders or health conditions affecting nutrition. These populations have specific nutritional needs requiring individualised professional assessment.

9. No Liability

SimplyNourished, its creators, and associated parties accept no liability for consequences—direct or indirect—arising from your use of this site or reliance on its content. This includes but is not limited to physical harm, illness, adverse effects, emotional distress, financial loss, or any other negative outcome. You use this site at your own risk and accept full responsibility for your decisions.

10. User Responsibility

  • You take full responsibility for any decisions you make based on this content
  • You will consult appropriate professionals for personalised guidance
  • You accept all risks associated with your personal health decisions

11. Content Accuracy

While we strive for accuracy, we do not warrant that all content is error-free, complete, or current. The information may be simplified for accessibility, potentially omitting important nuances. We reserve the right to modify or remove content without notice.

12. Health Outcomes Are Complex

Body composition, health status, energy levels, and overall wellbeing are influenced by countless interacting factors including genetics, overall diet quality, physical activity, sleep, stress, social connections, healthcare access, socioeconomic factors, and variables we may not fully understand. No single dietary approach or lifestyle change can predict outcomes.

Final Note

This disclaimer is not a legal loophole but a genuine statement of our commitment to clarity and responsibility. SimplyNourished exists to share knowledge, not to replace professional judgment. Understanding nutrition is valuable. But understanding also means recognising the limits of generalised knowledge and the importance of individualised professional assessment for personal health decisions.
