Medical Disclaimer
Nutrition guidance provided by Diet by Ruza is educational and supportive. It does not replace diagnosis, treatment or medication prescribed by a qualified medical practitioner.
Not medical advice
Consultations, personalised plans, articles and the BMI calculator on this website do not constitute medical diagnosis or treatment.
Always consult your doctor before making significant dietary changes, particularly if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, managing a chronic condition or taking prescribed medication.
Working alongside your doctor
For conditions such as diabetes, PCOS, thyroid disorders, high cholesterol, hypertension or digestive disease, nutrition guidance is designed to complement your medical care.
Never stop, reduce or alter prescribed medication based on nutrition guidance. Medication decisions belong to your treating physician.
BMI and general tools
BMI is a population-level screening measure. It does not account for muscle mass, body composition, age, ethnicity or medical history, and it is not a diagnosis of health or ill health.
Emergencies
If you experience symptoms that concern you — chest pain, fainting, severe abdominal pain, rapid unexplained weight loss or any acute illness — seek immediate medical attention rather than nutrition guidance.
Individual variation
Responses to dietary change differ between individuals. Information on this website is general in nature and may not apply to your specific circumstances.
