Disclaimer
Please read this before relying on anything you find on this site.
Educational purposes only
Everything on jeremysaulmd.com, including articles, book pages, essays, and any linked videos or social posts, is provided for general educational and informational purposes. It is written for a broad audience and cannot account for your personal medical history, your medicines, your test results, or your physical exam. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for the professional judgment of a clinician who knows you.
No doctor-patient relationship
Reading this website, watching my videos, reading my books, or contacting me by email, social media, or any other means does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and me. I can't diagnose, treat, or give individualized medical advice through this site or through messages.
Talk with your own doctor before you change anything
Please consult your own physician or qualified health professional before you start, stop, or change any diet, exercise program, supplement, or medication. That includes changes inspired by something you read here. Some changes that are safe for most people can be risky for you, depending on your heart, kidneys, blood sugar, pregnancy status, medicines, or other conditions.
Don't delay care
Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking care because of something you read on this site. If what you read here doesn't match what your doctor told you, bring the question to your doctor. They know your situation; I don't.
Emergencies
If you think you may be having a medical emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number right away. Warning signs include chest pain or pressure, trouble breathing, sudden weakness or numbness, trouble speaking, a sudden severe headache, fainting, or confusion. Do not use this website, email, or social media to seek help in an emergency.
Accuracy and currency
I work to keep health content accurate and up to date, and health articles show the date they were last reviewed. But medical knowledge and guidelines change, and errors are possible. Content is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, and you use it at your own risk.
Opinions are my own
The views expressed on this site, in my books, and on my official profiles are my own. They do not represent the views of any employer, hospital, health system, university, professional society, or other institution I am or have been affiliated with.
External links
This site links to outside websites, including government health agencies, professional organizations, retailers such as Amazon, and other platforms. I provide those links for convenience. I don't control those sites and am not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability, or privacy practices. A link is not an endorsement of everything on the linked site.
Books, games, and other projects
My books, including the Your New Diagnosis series and Heart Strong, are also educational and carry the same limits: they are not a substitute for care from your own doctor. My fiction, including Swarm 700, and the games from Mirrorshard Studios are works of imagination; nothing in them is medical advice.
Official accounts and impersonation
The only official accounts for Jeremy Saul MD are the ones linked on this site, listed on the about page and in the footer of every page. Be cautious of fake ads, impersonator profiles, or AI-generated videos that use my name, face, or voice. I do not endorse products through unofficial ads, and I will never ask you for money, passwords, or medical records in a direct message. If you see something suspicious, report it to the platform where you saw it.
Questions
If you have questions about this disclaimer, please use the contact page. Please don't include personal medical information.
