Medical Disclaimer

DietOwl provides personalised nutrition and lifestyle coaching. It is not a medical service, and nothing on this website or in any DietOwl conversation constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, or a cure for any condition. This page explains where our role ends and your doctor's begins.

DietOwl's content and services are intended to comply with the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) Code for Self-Regulation of Advertising Content in India, the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954 and Rules, the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. We do not advertise cures, guaranteed outcomes, or treatment of any disease. Where any representation on our website or in our communications could reasonably be read as a medical claim, it should be interpreted as general nutritional information only and must not be relied upon in place of advice from a qualified medical professional.

1. What DietOwl Does

Our expert dietitians build personalised nutrition plans, offer guidance on eating patterns, portions, and food choices, and support you through WhatsApp as you apply those changes. Our work is educational and nutritional in nature.

2. What DietOwl Does Not Do

• Diagnose medical conditions, including diabetes, PCOS, thyroid disorders, or any other disease.
• Prescribe, adjust, or recommend changes to any medication. Only a qualified physician can do that.
• Order, interpret, or act on medical tests in place of your treating physician.
• Replace emergency medical care. If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 108 in India or your local emergency number immediately.

3. Always Consult Your Doctor

Before beginning any DietOwl programme, you should consult a qualified healthcare professional if any of the following apply to you:

• You have been diagnosed with a chronic condition, including diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease, liver disease, or cardiac disease.
• You are currently pregnant or breastfeeding. Nutrition during pregnancy and lactation requires obstetric clearance and supervision.
• You are taking prescription medication of any kind, including insulin, metformin, thyroid medication, or hormonal contraceptives.
• You have a history of eating disorders or disordered eating.
• You are recovering from surgery, including bariatric procedures.
• You are enrolling a child below 18 years of age. Child nutrition plans are contracted with, and supervised by, a parent or legal guardian; a paediatrician must be consulted before starting if the child has any medical condition, allergy, or dietary restriction.

4. Individual Results Vary

The results you may achieve through DietOwl depend on many factors, including your starting health, adherence to the plan, existing conditions, medication, and lifestyle. Client stories and testimonials on this site reflect the experience of those individuals and are not a guarantee of comparable results for you.

5. Information On This Website

Articles, guides, and educational content on the DietOwl website are published for informational purposes only. They reflect current best practices in nutritional science at the time of writing, but are not a substitute for one-to-one medical advice. Do not use this content to self-diagnose or self-treat.

6. Coordination With Your Treating Physician

Where clinically relevant, our dietitians will encourage you to coordinate your nutrition plan with your treating physician. If at any point we determine that your condition requires medical attention beyond the scope of nutrition, we will tell you, and we will ask you to consult your doctor before continuing.

7. Emergency Situations

Do not use DietOwl for medical emergencies. Our dietitians are not available 24/7 for urgent medical questions, and WhatsApp response times are not guaranteed. For emergencies in India, dial 108. For a mental-health emergency, contact Vandrevala Foundation Helpline at 1860-2662-345 or iCall at 9152987821.

8. Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DietOwl and Selektial Software Solution Private Limited disclaim liability for any adverse outcomes that may result from your use of information or recommendations provided through the DietOwl programme, where such outcomes arise from actions taken without a treating physician's supervision. By using our services, you acknowledge and accept this division of responsibility.

9. Updates To This Disclaimer

We may update this disclaimer from time to time as the scope of our services evolves. The version in force at the time you engaged our services is the one that applies.
