Thoughts and feelings cause. You may want to read that again. This website informs and educates about the science of her metabolism: metabolism being the sum of her body's chemical actions. Some of the information will cause feelings. Feelings have a metabolic feature: like all logic, feelings cause. So mind your thoughts and feelings, including on this website.
Much of this website's information explains and warns about metabolic risks and harms unique or increased for her. The information may bring painful logic - whether thoughts, feelings, or otherwise. Yet, the information may cause interest, even excitement. The information could easily motivate someone to act with an aim to improve themselves and help to improve their family, friends, community, and the wider world. However, the opposite could happen.
The information may simply worry and stress the reader - even immiserate her or him. This site is not for that. Nor is the site for doomscrolling aka doomsurfing: the bad habit of seeking out negative news online to feel good about feeling bad. Those intent on doomscrolling should touch grass. If you understand and want to access the scientific information about her metabolism, then choose the "Continue" button. Otherwise, choose the "Leave" button to watch quadruplets laughing.
Throughout life, she (or he) may hear versions of this: "Those are feelings, not facts," or, "You are being emotional, not rational." Meanwhile, in the real world: feelings are facts, and emotions are rational - though understanding often requires attention and care. Metabolically, she and he may feel facts quite differently. Indeed, plenty of research shows that she and he generally stress differently. This website exists to educate, not immiserate, about the science of her metabolism. Still, some of the website could easily cause worry and even misery - for either him or her, yet especially for her. To say the least, some or much of the real science about her metabolism will disillusion many people's misunderstanding about her metabolism, and that disillusion, if it happens, may be plenty painful, mentally and emotionally.
Yet, the easiest, quickest, and best way through something - is through it. Thus, I wrote this website in plain English. The website contains neither legalese nor any other pomp or euphemisms. Some of the plain language may even sound harsh, especially to those who have become accustomed to gentle fictions and even well-meant lies. So, consider this website's information carefully; yet, above all, consider it patiently, especially with patience for yourself and how you feel about the information (including how it is presented). Feelings are facts, and emotions are rational. So, take a break if overwhelmed. The information will be here later.

Here in the USA, it is generally illegal and a bad idea for anyone but a jurisdiction-licensed physician to give medical advice, anyone but a jurisdiction-licensed attorney to give legal advice, anyone but a jurisdiction-licensed nutritionist or registered dietician to give metabolic advice, and so forth. This website's information is generally incomplete to predict how applying it may affect a given visitor - because the effects depend on the person's unique circumstances and characteristics.
So, here is the only medical, legal, and metabolic advice on this website: None of this website is individualized medical, legal, or metabolic advice. It is general information. You should not try to apply any of this information to your life, unless you know what you are doing. Generally, the governments of USA's jurisdictions (states and territories) declare two things through law:
Obviously, those standards are extremely conservative, if not heavy-handed. However, one should remember that many of those people in government who uphold such strict standards have seen the stuff of nightmares: predictable, preventable, terrible consequences when the least capable and least conscientious people make the worst decisions - whether medically, legally, nutritionally, or otherwise. So, it is not wildly unreasonable to promote - even to legally command - erring on the safe side. Still, various jurisdictions do provide some exceptions to those exceptionally strict standards under law.
Here in Minnesota (and in many other U.S. states and territories) a person can help you with certain aspects of your medical, legal, and metabolic status and circumstances - even when that person is not formally licensed by the jurisdiction. Minnesota, for example, allows various people besides licensed nutritionists and registered dieticians to give metabolic advice and guidance: certain Complementary and Alternative Health Care providers, which Minnesota allows under law. Minn. Stat. ยง 146A. Thus, one need not feel completely locked into the strict standards listed above (though jurisdictions do typically still hold alternative providers to certain basic standards under law). Instead, in the USA, one can discuss the information on this website, and receive guidance about it, from various experts - whether jurisdiction-licensed or not. Meanwhile, this thorough and smart-sounding notice and explanation should not tempt any visitor into having any extra trust for the information in this website. At most, as the saying goes: "trust but verify."
