Medical & AI Disclaimer
Effective Date: July 31, 2026
1. For Informational Purposes Only
The content, reports, and data syntheses provided by Veraflux (the "Service") are strictly for educational and informational purposes. Veraflux is not a healthcare provider, and the Service does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or professional clinical guidance.
Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition, supplement, or treatment protocol. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on this Service.
2. Artificial Intelligence & Synthesis Limitations
Veraflux uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) to retrieve, filter, and summarize publicly available literature from databases such as PubMed (NCBI). By using this Service, you acknowledge and agree to the following inherent limitations:
- Incomplete retrieval: Reports are based on a limited sample of PubMed search results, not the entirety of available medical literature. A statement that a specific effect or safety concern is "not addressed" means only that it was not found in the specific, limited set of papers retrieved for that query. It does not mean the risk or effect does not exist.
- Potential inaccuracies: Despite engineering constraints designed to minimize errors, LLMs can generate text that is factually incorrect, logically flawed, or misattributed - a phenomenon known as "hallucination."
- Safety content may draw on model knowledge: The Drug Interactions, Contraindications, and Tolerable Upper Limit sections are not restricted to the studies retrieved for your report. Clinical trials systematically under-test dangerous combinations, contraindications are often established through case series and toxicological data, and upper intake levels are set in regulatory monographs that are not indexed as studies. For those three sections the model is therefore instructed to supplement the retrieved literature with established pharmacological knowledge, and any statement sourced that way is prefixed "Based on established pharmacological principles:". Those statements are not traceable to a citation in your report's reference list, and you should treat them as a prompt to consult a pharmacist or physician rather than as a verified finding.
- Nuance limitations: AI models may fail to grasp clinical nuance, the significance of sample sizes, or the statistical rigor of the studies they summarize. Correlation may be conflated with causation, and dosage protocols may be misinterpreted.
- Label transcription can misread: When you scan a supplement label, an AI vision model reads the printed panel. Glare, blur, curved surfaces, small type, and unusual ingredient spellings can cause it to misread an ingredient, merge two, or miss one entirely. Review the transcribed list against the physical label before relying on it, and treat any ingredient you cannot find on the bottle as unverified. A label is also a claim by the manufacturer, not an independent measurement of what the product contains.
- Ingredient briefs cover efficacy only: An ingredient brief is a condensed report containing a single Efficacy Evidence section. It carries no safety, dosing, drug interaction, or demographic content, and the absence of those sections is not a statement that an ingredient is safe, that any dose is appropriate, or that it does not interact with your medication. A set of briefs generated from one label has not been screened for interactions between those ingredients or with anything else you take.
3. No Human Verification or Peer Review
The reports generated by Veraflux are fully automated. They have not been manually reviewed, verified, or fact-checked by a medical doctor, pharmacologist, or human researcher prior to being displayed to you. See the methodology page for the full breakdown of what the automated pipeline does and the engineering constraints that bound its output.
4. Verification Requirement
You are strongly advised to independently verify all claims, citations, and summaries generated by Veraflux by consulting the primary source material. PubMed links are provided in the reference section of each report for this purpose.
5. Not a Substitute for Professional Advice
This Service is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Do not start, stop, or change any supplement or medication regimen based on information from Veraflux without first consulting your healthcare provider.
6. Assumption of Risk & Limitation of Liability
Your reliance on any information provided by Veraflux is solely at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Veraflux and its creators, contributors, and affiliates disclaim all liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, injuries, or health complications arising from your use of, or reliance upon, the data synthesized by this Service.
7. Changes to This Disclaimer
We may update this disclaimer from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via the Service or email. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated disclaimer.
