Terms of Use
The rules of the road for using FedWell.
Last updated: 11 March 2026
1. Who We Are
FedWell (fedwell.ai) is operated by Hushful Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales. When we say "we", "us", or "FedWell", we mean Hushful Ltd.
2. Not Medical Advice
FedWell is an educational publishing platform, not a healthcare provider.
The content on FedWell consists of expert-attributed claims about metabolic health, metabolic psychiatry, and related fields. Each claim is attributed to a named expert contributor and graded by evidence level. This content is published for educational and informational purposes only.
FedWell content does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. You should not rely on anything published on FedWell as a substitute for professional medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making changes to your diet, medication, or health routine.
The evidence level badges (meta-analysis, RCT, observational, etc.) describe the type of research behind a claim. They do not indicate that a claim is appropriate for your specific situation.
3. What FedWell Publishes
FedWell publishes "Nuggets": short, evidence-graded statements produced through Socratic dialogue between an expert contributor and an AI editor. The process works like this:
- A named expert makes a claim and provides supporting evidence
- An AI editor challenges the claim through structured questioning
- If the claim survives scrutiny, the expert confirms it for publication
The expert, not FedWell and not the AI, is the author of each Nugget. FedWell provides the editorial process and the publishing platform. The AI editor facilitates the Socratic dialogue but does not generate the scientific claims. Each Nugget represents the contributing expert's professional judgement.
4. Content Licence
All Nuggets are published under Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-ND 4.0). You may share them freely, but they must be reproduced verbatim with the expert's name and a link to fedwell.ai. See our Licence & Usage page for full details.
5. Accuracy and Corrections
We take care to publish accurate, well-evidenced content. However:
- Scientific understanding evolves. A claim that was well-supported at publication may be superseded by newer research.
- Each Nugget reflects one expert's professional judgement, not a universal consensus.
- Evidence levels describe the type of research cited, not a guarantee of correctness.
If you believe a Nugget contains an error, you can contest it directly from the Nugget page. Contested claims are reviewed and may be updated, corroborated by additional experts, or withdrawn.
6. Your Use of FedWell
You may use FedWell to browse, search, and share Nuggets under the CC BY-ND 4.0 licence. You agree not to:
- Use the site or API to build a competing product or service
- Scrape, bulk-download, or systematically extract content beyond what the public API permits
- Misrepresent FedWell content as your own or remove expert attribution
- Use FedWell content in a way that implies it is personalised medical advice
7. API Use
FedWell provides a public API for searching and retrieving Nuggets. The API is rate-limited and intended for embedding, citation, and educational use. Use of the API to build a product or service that competes with FedWell or any Hushful product is not permitted. We reserve the right to revoke API access at our discretion.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hushful Ltd shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, content published on FedWell. This includes but is not limited to health decisions made based on FedWell content.
FedWell is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.
9. Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will change when we do. Continued use of FedWell after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
10. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
