A note on honest expectations

The lifestyle changes these guides teach are well documented in peer-reviewed research — and how far any individual gets with them varies, which is why no honest guide can promise you a specific outcome. What we promise instead: every claim referenced, the limits stated plainly, and guidance designed to be used with your healthcare provider — never instead of one. The evidence itself, sources named, is discussed in depth in our free education articles.

Important

These guides are for education only and are not medical advice. They do not diagnose, treat, or cure any condition, and individual results vary. Do not start, stop, or change any medication — or begin fasting — without medical guidance, particularly if you take insulin or a sulfonylurea. If you have retinopathy, high blood pressure, or a heart condition, clear new exercise with your doctor first.
