Our content is not intended to:

Not a Healthcare Provider
OptimalEating is an independent educational resource. We are not healthcare providers, physicians, registered dietitians, or other licensed medical professionals. The information presented does not constitute professional medical or nutrition advice.
Individual Variation
Human biology varies substantially between individuals. Genetic differences, metabolic factors, health status, medications, activity level, and countless other variables influence individual responses to dietary changes. General principles that apply to population averages may not apply to specific individuals.
Responses to dietary changes are highly individual. What supports metabolic health for one person may require adjustment for another. Medical conditions, medications, allergies, intolerances, and other factors create individual requirements that cannot be addressed through general educational content.
Consult Healthcare Professionals
Before making significant dietary changes, particularly if you have:
- Existing health conditions (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune conditions, etc.)
- Current medications that may interact with dietary changes
- Food allergies or intolerances
- Digestive disorders or conditions
- Eating disorder history
- Pregnancy or nursing
- Any other health concerns
Please consult qualified healthcare professionals including physicians or registered dietitians who can assess your individual situation, review your medical history, understand your medications, and provide personalized recommendations.
Research Limitations
Nutrition research is complex and evolving. Scientific findings undergo continuous refinement. Observational studies show associations but cannot prove causation. Individual studies may have limitations. Research in one population may not apply to others.
We present research findings accurately, but science remains an evolving field. Future research may refine, modify, or change our understanding of nutritional principles.
Emergency Situations
If you experience medical emergencies, severe symptoms, or health crises, contact emergency medical services immediately. OptimalEating content is never appropriate for emergency medical situations.

Professional Medical Advice
Nothing in OptimalEating's content should be interpreted as replacing professional medical advice. If you have health concerns, always seek guidance from qualified healthcare professionals. No general educational website can provide the individualized assessment required for proper medical care.
Age and Capability
OptimalEating's content is intended for general audiences capable of understanding health information. Parents, guardians, and caregivers should supervise younger users. Information appropriate for adults may not be appropriate for children without context and guidance from responsible adults.
Accuracy Notice
