Nutrition and Dietary Information Disclaimers
This is crucial—please read carefully:
Not Medical or Professional Advice:
The nutrition information, dietary guidance, and health-related content on SoupMore is for educational and informational purposes only. We’re dietitians, but we’re not YOUR dietitian. We don’t know your individual health situation, allergies, medical conditions, or specific needs.
Do not use our content as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult your doctor, dietitian, or healthcare provider before making dietary changes, especially if you have:
- Food allergies or intolerances
- Chronic health conditions (diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, etc.)
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding considerations
- Taking medications that interact with certain foods
- Any medical dietary restrictions
Nutrition Information Accuracy:
We calculate nutrition information using standard databases and recipe software. However:
- Values are estimates based on specific ingredients and measurements
- Your actual nutrition content may vary based on ingredient brands, preparation methods, and portion sizes
- We’re not liable for errors in nutrition calculations or their consequences
- If precise nutrition tracking is medically necessary for you, verify calculations independently
Allergy and Safety Warnings:
READ RECIPES CAREFULLY for allergen information. We note common allergens, but:
- We cannot guarantee our recipes are free from cross-contamination
- Ingredient brands may contain unlisted allergens
- We test in kitchens that contain major allergens (gluten, dairy, nuts, soy, eggs, etc.)
- It’s your responsibility to verify all ingredients are safe for your specific allergies
If you have severe allergies, always:
- Read all product labels yourself
- Contact manufacturers about manufacturing processes
- Consult your allergist before trying new recipes
Food Safety:
We follow standard food safety practices, but cooking safety is ultimately your responsibility:
- Use proper food handling and storage techniques
- Cook to safe internal temperatures
- Refrigerate and freeze appropriately
- Use your judgment about ingredient freshness

General Equipment Disclaimers:
Recipe results may vary based on equipment differences (stove heat levels, slow cooker sizes, pot materials, etc.). We test with standard equipment, but we can’t guarantee identical results with all brands and models.
Results Not Guaranteed
We test our recipes extensively, but cooking involves variables we can’t control:
- Ingredient quality and freshness
- Equipment differences
- Altitude and climate factors
- Individual technique and experience level
- Personal taste preferences
While we strive for consistent, reliable recipes, we cannot guarantee specific results, outcomes, or that you’ll like every recipe. Cooking involves some trial and error—it’s part of the process.
