At A Spoon of Truth, we believe that learning about food, herbs, and everyday wellness can be empowering. Our goal is to provide accessible education and encourage thoughtful, informed wellness practices.

At the same time, herbs and wellness practices are not appropriate for every person or situation. Please read the following information carefully.

All information provided by A Spoon of Truth, including information shared through our website, social media, consultations, coaching, workshops, products, emails, recipes, guides, and other materials, is provided for general educational and informational purposes.

Our content is not intended to provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Information about herbs may include traditional uses, historical practices, general wellness information, or discussion of available research. This information should not be interpreted as a guarantee that an herb will produce a particular result.

No Medical Relationship

A Spoon of Truth provides wellness education, herbal education, and lifestyle coaching.

Our services do not constitute medical care and do not create a doctor-patient relationship, therapist-client relationship, or other healthcare provider-patient relationship.

We do not diagnose disease, treat medical conditions, prescribe medications, or provide emergency medical care.

Consult Your Healthcare Professional

Please speak with an appropriately licensed healthcare professional before using herbs or making significant changes to your diet or lifestyle if you:

  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding

  • Take prescription or over-the-counter medications

  • Take dietary supplements

  • Have a diagnosed medical condition

Personal Responsibility

Your decision to purchase or use an herbal product or participate in a wellness service is voluntary.

You are responsible for reviewing product ingredients, directions, warnings, and other information before use.

Individual experiences and results vary.

Allergic or Adverse Reactions

Discontinue use and seek appropriate medical attention if you experience an allergic reaction, unexpected reaction, or concerning symptom.

If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, contact emergency medical services rather than relying on information provided by A Spoon of Truth.

Herbal Products

Herbal products are made from botanical ingredients and may have physiological effects.

"Natural" does not necessarily mean safe for every person.

Herbs may interact with medications, supplements, medical conditions, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or other circumstances.

Customers are responsible for reviewing ingredients and determining, with appropriate professional guidance when necessary, whether a product is suitable for them.

Wellness Education and "Food as Medicine"

A Spoon of Truth may use the phrase "food as medicine" to describe an educational philosophy that recognizes the relationship between food, nutrition, lifestyle, and overall wellness.

Our use of this phrase does not mean that food, herbs, or our services are intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

Our services are not intended to replace individualized medical care or medical nutrition therapy.

Individual Results

No specific health or wellness outcome is guaranteed.

Testimonials, reviews, examples, and personal experiences represent individual experiences and should not be interpreted as promises that another person will achieve the same result.
