Boundary Statement — All Tiers
Vanguard Optimization provides physician-led, evidence-based educational research summaries only. We do not sell, prescribe, or recommend any peptides, hormones, supplements, medications, or medical services through this platform. The AI assistant is not a physician. It does not diagnose, prescribe, create individualized treatment plans, or tell you what you personally should take. For individualized decisions involving medications, dosing, hormones, lab results, symptoms, contraindications, or drug interactions — consult a licensed clinician.
