The content on nickyelliott.com is not a substitute for any professional medical advice and is not intended to diagnose or treat. Do not stop any conventional treatment or medication for any reason without consulting a doctor. Culinary Medicine sits alongside professional medical advice.

Culinary Medicine is the application of nutrition science in the promotion of health, peak performance and individual care. Practitioners consider each individual to be unique and recommend personalised nutrition and lifestyle programmes rather than a ‘one size fits all’ approach. Practitioners never recommend nutritional therapy as a replacement for medical advice and always refer any client with symptoms that cause concern to their medical professional.

Nicky Elliott requests that the Client notes the following:

• The degree of benefit obtainable from a Culinary Medicine Practitioner may vary between clients with similar health problems and following a similar Culinary Medicine nutritional programme.

• Culinary Medicine advice will be tailored to support health conditions and/or health concerns identified and agreed between both parties.

• Culinary Medicine Practitioners are not permitted to diagnose, or claim to treat, medical conditions.

• Nutritional advice is not a substitute for professional medical advice and/or treatment.

• Your Culinary Medicine Practitioner may recommend food supplements as part of your nutritional programme and may receive a commission on these products or services.

• Nicky abides by the standards of the FHT, IPHM, CMA, FHTP and the IICT.

The Client understands and agrees to the following:

• You (the client) are responsible for contacting your GP about any health concerns.

• You give permission for Nicky to contact your GP regarding any agreed aspects of your case.

• If you are receiving treatment from your GP, or any other medical provider, you should tell him/her about any nutritional strategy provided by the culinary Medicine Practitioner. (This is necessary because of any possible reaction between medication and the nutritional programme.)

• It is important that you inform me about any medical diagnosis, medication, herbal medicine, or food supplements, you are taking as this may affect the nutritional programme.

• If you are unclear about the agreed nutritional programme/food supplement doses/time period, you should contact me promptly for clarification.

• You must contact me should you wish to continue any specified supplement programme for longer than the original agreed period, to avoid any potential adverse reactions.

• You are advised to report any concerns about Nutritional Therapy promptly to me for discussion and action.
