Medical Disclaimer

Education, not medical advice. Talk to your doctor.

1. Who I Am

My name is Kathryn Crosby. I am not a doctor, nurse, nutritionist, pharmacist, or any other kind of licensed healthcare professional.

The content I publish under the Build Your Protocol brand is based on my own research — including peer-reviewed studies, books, conversations with practitioners, and my personal experience as a consumer of the wellness industry.

I share it because I think the wellness-industrial complex has made it unnecessarily hard for women to make informed decisions about their own bodies.

I am writing as a smart consumer, not as a clinician.

2. What This Is and What It Isn’t

This is:

  • Educational content, opinion, research summaries, and personal experience.

This is not:

  • Medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, prescription, or a doctor-patient relationship.

Reading anything on this site or in any product I sell does not create a healthcare provider relationship between you and me.

3. Always Talk to Your Doctor

Before starting, stopping, or changing any medication, supplement, hormone protocol, diet, exercise program, or other intervention that affects your health, talk to a qualified licensed healthcare provider who knows you, your history, and your current situation.

That person can evaluate whether anything I write about is appropriate for you. I cannot.

What worked for me — or for the researchers I cite — may not be safe or appropriate for you.

4. No FDA Evaluation

Statements on this site and in our products about supplements, foods, or any other product have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

5. Individual Results Vary

Examples, case studies, and personal stories shared on the Site or in the Products reflect specific situations.

Your situation is different. You should not expect the same outcomes.

Many factors affect health, including factors you and I cannot anticipate.

6. If Something Feels Wrong

If you experience adverse effects from any change you make based on something you read in our content, stop the change and contact a qualified healthcare professional immediately.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number.

Do not use our content in place of emergency care.

7. Mental Health

Some of our content touches on mood, sleep, stress, and related topics.

If you are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, or any other mental health concern, please reach out to a qualified mental health professional.

In the U.S., you can call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.

8. Pregnancy, Breastfeeding, and Pediatric Care

Our content is written for adults, generally women 35–55.

We do not provide medical advice for pregnancy, breastfeeding, infants, children, or adolescents.

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy, please consult your obstetrician or midwife before changing anything related to your health.

9. Third-Party Products and Links

When we name specific products, supplements, or services, we are sharing what we have personally used or researched.

We do not warrant the safety, efficacy, or quality of any third-party product.

Always read the label, follow manufacturer instructions, and check with your doctor before adding anything new.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Leigh Crosby LLC and its owners, employees, and contractors will not be liable for any harm, loss, or damage arising out of your use of, or reliance on, any content on the Site or in any Product.

By using the Site or purchasing a Product, you agree to assume full responsibility for any health-related decisions you make.

11. By Accessing the Site, You Agree

That you have read this disclaimer; that you understand the content is education, not medical advice; that you will consult a qualified healthcare professional before making any health-related change; and that you assume full responsibility for the decisions you make.

BEFORE YOU BUY ANOTHER SUPPLEMENT

You spent $400 on supplements that did nothing.

Real talk: the wellness industry is counting on you not reading the label. This free 13-page kit is the audit I wish someone had handed me before I dropped $400 on a functional med appointment and walked out with a printout.
