Medical disclaimer

Why nothing in the hub is medical advice, what the FDA statement means, and how to use the evidence library responsibly.

Last updated 5 August 2026

Educational only

Everything published in The Swan Legacy — member posts, comments, Cannabis Health Radio episodes, live events, evidence summaries and Ask Robin answers — is educational. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and it does not create a clinician–patient relationship.

The FDA statement

These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Products sold by our makers are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Talk to a professional

Always speak to a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping or changing any treatment, especially if you are pregnant or nursing, taking prescription medicine, or living with a diagnosed condition. Never delay seeking care because of something you read here. In an emergency, contact your local emergency service.

Lived experience and evidence

Forty years of lived experience is a starting point, not a prescription. Members are asked to describe what they did, never to tell someone else what to do. Evidence entries carry a citation and a grade so you can read the source yourself and discuss it with your clinician.

Animals

Happy Pet Medicinals content concerns companion animals. Speak with a veterinarian before giving any product to an animal; dosing and tolerance differ substantially from humans.
