Terms & medical disclaimer

General health education

HealthBook provides general health information for educational purposes and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Reading HealthBook does not establish a clinician–patient relationship. Do not delay professional care, stop prescribed treatment, or change a medicine because of something you read here. Advice depends on your health history and local guidance.

Urgent concerns

If you think you or someone else may be having a medical emergency, contact the appropriate local emergency service immediately. Do not wait for a website response or rely on an article to rule out a serious condition.

Accuracy and changing guidance

Health information changes. We provide source links and update dates, but cannot promise that every page is complete, suitable for every reader, or free of mistakes. Check important decisions with a qualified professional and the original source.

Recipes and practical examples

Recipes are general meal ideas, not individual dietary prescriptions or verified nutrient analyses. Check allergies and follow safe food handling. Adaptations may be needed for pregnancy, children, medical conditions, and other circumstances.

HealthBook AI

The assistant offers general educational information when available and may make mistakes. It cannot diagnose, prescribe, assess emergencies or contact anyone on your behalf. Do not rely on a chat answer for a medical decision. Automated safety checks are limited and cannot detect every risky situation. Read the chat privacy information before using it.

Using the website

Please use the site lawfully and do not interfere with its operation or misrepresent its content. Attribute HealthBook when quoting a short excerpt and link to the original page. Third-party materials and linked sources remain subject to their own terms.

External links and future advertising

Links are provided for information and do not imply endorsement by either organisation. Advertising, if enabled later, will be distinguished from editorial content. An advertised product should not be treated as a medical recommendation.
