CalBal Health Disclaimer
Last updated: July 2, 2026
Please read this disclaimer before using CalBal. By using CalBal, you understand and accept that:
- CalBal provides general calorie-balance information for educational and personal tracking purposes.
- CalBal is not medical care, medical nutrition therapy, diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
- You are responsible for your own health decisions and for deciding whether changes to diet, activity, weight goals, or tracking behavior are appropriate for you.
- You should consult a qualified healthcare professional before making meaningful changes to eating habits, activity, weight management, fasting, supplement use, or any other health-related behavior.
Educational Information Only
CalBal uses data you authorize through Apple Health to display calorie intake, active calories, resting calories, body weight, and energy-balance trends. These calculations and visualizations are provided for general informational and educational purposes only.
CalBal does not provide medical advice, medical nutrition therapy, individualized diet counseling, diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of any disease or medical condition. Information shown in the app should not be interpreted as a recommendation that a specific calorie target, weight goal, activity level, or nutrition plan is safe or appropriate for you.
Consult Qualified Professionals
Always speak with a physician, registered dietitian, or other qualified healthcare professional before making health-related decisions or changing your diet, exercise routine, weight-management approach, fasting practices, supplement use, medication use, or other health behaviors.
This is especially important if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, taking medication, have a history of disordered eating, have a medical condition, have concerns about body weight or body image, or have been advised to follow a medically supervised nutrition or activity plan.
Calorie and Health Data Limitations
CalBal depends on information available from Apple Health and the apps, devices, or manual entries that write data there. Nutrition logs, active calorie estimates, resting calorie estimates, body weight readings, and sync timing can be incomplete, delayed, duplicated, estimated, or inaccurate.
Resting/BMR tuning and calorie-balance trends are estimates. They are not based on a medical examination, full health history, metabolic testing, clinical review, or professional evaluation of your individual needs.
User Responsibility
You are responsible for how you use CalBal and for any decisions you make based on information shown in the app. Use your judgment, avoid extreme changes, and seek professional guidance when numbers in the app are confusing, concerning, or inconsistent with how you feel.
If you experience dizziness, faintness, chest pain, shortness of breath, severe fatigue, rapid unintended weight change, symptoms of disordered eating, or any other concerning symptom, stop the related activity and seek medical attention promptly.
No Guarantee of Results
CalBal may help you understand patterns in calorie and weight data, but it cannot guarantee weight loss, weight gain, weight maintenance, improved health, performance changes, or any other outcome. Individual results vary and may be affected by factors outside the app's visibility.
Appropriate Use
CalBal is intended for users who can make their own informed health decisions and who are using the app as a personal tracking aid. Do not use CalBal in place of care from a qualified professional, and do not use it to manage a medical condition without professional supervision.
Changes to This Disclaimer
This disclaimer may be updated from time to time. When it changes, the updated date on this page will be revised. Continued use of CalBal after a change means you accept the updated disclaimer.
