Nature of Services

DiNutrition provides educational nutrition information and personalised nutritionist consultation services. Our services are designed to support your health and wellness goals through evidence-based nutrition guidance.

Our services are educational and informational in nature. We do not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

Not Medical Advice

The information and recommendations provided by DiNutrition nutritionists are not intended to:

• Replace medical advice from qualified healthcare professionals
• Diagnose medical conditions or diseases
• Treat, cure or prevent any medical condition
• Serve as a substitute for professional medical consultation
• Replace prescribed medications or therapies

Always consult with your GP or appropriate healthcare provider before making significant changes to your diet, especially if you have existing health conditions, are taking medications, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have concerns about your health.
