Medical Disclaimer

The Company (“We”) recommends that you consult your healthcare provider prior to starting any weight loss program, and during the course of your weight loss program. Do NOT use any OPTAVIA plan if you are pregnant or under the age of 13.

Before starting a weight loss program, talk with your healthcare provider about the program, and about any medications or dietary supplements you are using, including especially Coumadin (Warfarin), lithium, diuretics, or medications for diabetes, high blood pressure or thyroid conditions. Do not participate in any OPTAVIA Program until you are cleared by your healthcare provider if you have or have had a serious illness (e.g. cardiovascular disease including heart attack, diabetes, cancer, thyroid disease, liver or kidney disease, eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia), or any other condition requiring medical care or that may be affected by weight loss.

The OPTAVIA for Teens plan is the only OPTAVIA Program appropriate for teens (13 to 17 years of age). The Optimal Weight 5 & 1 Plan is NOT appropriate for teens, sedentary older adults (65 years and older), nursing mothers, people with gout, some people with diabetes, and those who exercise more than 45 minutes per day – if you fall into one of these categories, please consult your healthcare provider and refer to www.OPTAVIA.com and talk with your independent OPTAVIA Coach about other OPTAVIA plans that may be appropriate. For special medical or dietary needs, including food allergies, refer to our program information online, consult your healthcare provider and talk to your OPTAVIA Coach. Do not consume an OPTAVIA product if you are allergic to any of that product’s ingredients which are listed on the product packaging and on the OPTAVIA website.

We recommend drinking 64 ounces of water each day. Consult with your healthcare provider prior to changing the amount of water you drink as it can affect certain health conditions and medications.

NOTE: Rapid weight loss may cause gallstones or gallbladder disease or temporary hair thinning in some people. While adjusting to the intake of a lower calorie level and dietary changes, some people may experience dizziness, lightheadedness, headache, fatigue, or gastrointestinal disturbances (such as abdominal pain, bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhea, or nausea). Consult your healthcare provider for further guidance on these or any other health concerns. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience muscle cramps, tingling, numbness, confusion, or rapid/irregular heartbeat as these may be a sign of a more serious health condition.

For avoidance of doubt, the OPTAVIA Programs and products are not labeled, advertised or promoted for any specific medicinal purpose, i.e. treatment or prevention, implied or otherwise, of any disease or disorder, including its related conditions.

The OPTAVIA Programs, products, and any of its materials and/or information do not in any way constitute medical advice or substitute for medical treatment. As individuals may have different responses to dietary products or changes in diet, consult with your healthcare provider regarding any medical concerns.
