Health information disclaimer
1. General purpose
Evolve publishes general educational material about food and health conditions for UK readers. Pages are not individual medical advice, diagnosis or a treatment plan.
2. Individual differences
Medical history, medicines, allergies, pregnancy, age and access to care can change what is appropriate. A general article cannot account for those factors.
3. Professional care
Speak with a GP, pharmacist, dietitian or other qualified professional before making significant changes. Never stop prescribed treatment based only on website content.
4. Urgent symptoms
Seek urgent help for severe, sudden or worsening symptoms. In an emergency call 999 or use the appropriate NHS service.
5. Sources
We aim to draw on recognised public health and clinical sources and review date-sensitive material. Readers should check current official guidance.
6. Supplements
Supplements can interact with medicines and may vary in quality. Discuss them with a pharmacist before use.
7. Advertising
Any commercial relationship is separated from editorial judgement. We do not guarantee outcomes or endorse products merely because they are mentioned.
8. Accuracy
We work to correct material errors, but no publication can guarantee that every page is complete or current at every moment.
9. Contact
Questions and corrections can be sent to 78 Regent Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M14 4GP or 0161 748 6329.
10. Revision
This disclaimer was reviewed on 5 October 2026 and will be updated when our publishing approach changes.
How to read this information
Articles are written to explain themes, terminology and questions that readers may wish to discuss with a qualified professional. They cannot account for examination findings, test results, medical history, allergies, prescribed medicines or personal priorities. A food choice that is reasonable for one person may be unsuitable for another because of a different condition, medication or dietary requirement.
Before making a substantial change, write down the relevant questions and take the page to a GP, pharmacist, registered dietitian or another appropriate professional. Ask how general information applies to your circumstances and what signs would require review. This is particularly important during pregnancy, after a new diagnosis, when taking regular medicines or when symptoms change.
Sources, updates and limitations
Our editors check public guidance and recognised clinical or public health sources where relevant, but guidance can change and sources can disagree about detail. We record review dates and correct material errors when they are identified. A publication may still contain omissions, and the absence of a statement should not be read as a conclusion about a person’s health.
Commercial references, if present, are kept separate from editorial judgement and do not alter the general nature of the information. Evolve does not assess an individual, issue prescriptions or monitor symptoms. Website correspondence is not an emergency channel and is normally reviewed within five working days.
Questions and record of review
For questions about this disclaimer, write to 78 Regent Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M14 4GP, or phone 0161 748 6329. We retain relevant correspondence for up to 24 months and may retain a complaint record longer where necessary to meet a legal or accountability purpose.

This disclaimer applies to general information on Evolve, including article text, guides, summaries, examples, illustrations, search results and links to outside sources. It is written for a UK audience but cannot determine whether a particular statement applies to someone living elsewhere or to an individual set of circumstances. Reading an article does not create a professional, advisory or client relationship with Evolve.
Health information is affected by age, medical history, current symptoms, prescribed medicines, allergies, pregnancy, accessibility needs and personal preferences. A general explanation may omit details that would be important in an individual assessment. Readers should use a GP, pharmacist, registered dietitian or another suitably qualified professional for personal questions, and should use NHS urgent or emergency services where a situation requires immediate attention.
Evolve does not monitor symptoms, interpret test results, issue prescriptions, provide diagnosis or replace a clinical consultation. Contact forms and email are not continuously monitored and should not be used for urgent communication. Messages are normally reviewed within five working days, and relevant correspondence is kept for up to 24 months unless a longer period is needed for a complaint, audit or legal matter.
Sources are selected for relevance and reviewed on the date shown, but external guidance can change after publication. A linked source may be updated, moved or withdrawn by its owner, and Evolve cannot control the availability or privacy practices of that destination. Commercial references remain separate from the editorial purpose and are not a statement that a product or service is suitable for a reader.
To ask about a correction or the scope of this notice, write to 78 Regent Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M14 4GP, or phone 0161 748 6329. We aim to acknowledge a substantive report within five working days and assess it within 20 working days. A dated review entry is retained so that readers can distinguish the wording in force on 5 October 2026 from later revisions.
