Consult Your Healthcare Provider

Individual Variation & Personal Responsibility

Dietary tolerance and response to food vary widely between individuals.

What may be generally tolerated by some people may not be tolerated by you. Factors such as genetics, medications, portion size, preparation method, overall health, and individual sensitivity all play a role.

HealMeal provides general patterns and educational guidance, not individualized determinations. You are responsible for monitoring your own responses and making dietary decisions in consultation with your healthcare provider.
