Medical Disclaimer

Just Health Life publishes health and wellness information for general educational purposes. This page explains, in plain language, what that means and what it does not mean.

Not Medical Advice

Nothing on this website is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Reading our articles or using our calculators does not create a doctor-patient relationship of any kind. Our content cannot account for your medical history, medications, allergies, or individual circumstances, and it is never a substitute for the judgment of a licensed healthcare professional who knows you.

Always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified health provider with any questions about a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you read on this site.

In an Emergency

If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately (911 in the United States, 112 in most of Europe). Do not use this website to evaluate urgent symptoms such as chest pain, difficulty breathing, signs of stroke, severe bleeding, or thoughts of harming yourself.

About Our Calculators

Our health calculators are educational tools built on published formulas and public guidelines from organizations such as the CDC, WHO, NIH, the American Heart Association, and ACOG. Every calculator page lists its sources. The results are population-level estimates: useful reference points, not measurements, and not a diagnosis. A calculator cannot know whether a number is right for your body. Discuss your results with a healthcare provider before acting on them, especially if you are pregnant, under 18, over 65, managing a medical condition, or taking medication.

External Links and Advertising

We link to external sources, including government health agencies and medical organizations, to back up what we write. We are not responsible for the content of external websites. This site displays advertising and may contain affiliate links; see our affiliate disclosure for details. Advertising never influences the health information we publish.

You can read about how our content is produced and sourced in our editorial policy. Questions about this disclaimer can be sent through our contact page.
