The Obligatory Disclosure

Obligatory because covering my ass for things like this is important.

… Because this is kind of a health and nutrition blog, not to be confused with actual medical and nutritional advice.

Listen up, because this is the part where I legally have to tell you some obvious stuff: I’m just a chaos-ADD-ADHD-HDD-HDMI goblin who likes to self experiment, who has a keyboard and who possesses an unhealthy obsession with spices. Combined with a penchant for delving elbow deep into either research, or philosophising on the significance of why life is the way it is and why pepper and salt are the staple of seasoning in Western cuisine (a bit dull when I say it like that, isn’t it?). Nothing on this site should be mistaken for actual medical advice, because holy shit, that would be terrifying. If you’re thinking about making any significant changes to your diet or health routine, talk to a real medical professional – you know, someone who went to school for this stuff and doesn’t punctuate their sentences with memes.

While I’ve done my research and cited actual scientific papers (shocking, I know), your body might decide to be that one special snowflake that reacts differently to everything. Also, if you’re pregnant, nursing, taking medications, have any medical conditions, or are basically existing in a human body, check with your doctor before going all-in on any supplement or dietary change. They’ve got degrees hanging on their walls for a reason.

If you ignore this advice and decide to eat your weight in nutmeg because “some blog told you it was healthy,” that’s on you, buttercup. I’ll be over here, safely protected by this lovely wall of semi-legal jargon, sipping my sensibly-spiced tea.

Remember: Just because something is “natural” doesn’t mean it can’t mess you up. Arsenic is natural too, but you don’t see people sprinkling that on their oatmeal. (Please don’t sprinkle arsenic on your oatmeal).
