Nature of Content
All information, articles, and educational materials on Florentis are designed to explain scientific concepts and research findings related to gut microbiota and human metabolism. Our content is not intended to:
- Diagnose medical conditions

Research Limitations
Scientific research regarding gut microbiota and metabolism continues to evolve. Findings presented on Florentis reflect the current state of knowledge, but substantial gaps, inconsistencies, and unanswered questions remain. Content may be subject to revision as new evidence emerges.
Many associations discussed on this website are observational—meaning they describe relationships observed in research but do not establish causality. Causation requires specific types of evidence that often remain incomplete.
Individual Variation
Human physiology is highly variable. Mechanisms and associations described on Florentis may not apply equally to all individuals. Genetic differences, environmental factors, lifestyle choices, and individual health status create heterogeneity in how these biological systems function across populations.
No Personalised Recommendations
Florentis does not provide personalised health recommendations, dietary advice, or treatment guidance. We do not assess your individual circumstances, health status, or risk factors. Decisions regarding health interventions should be made in consultation with qualified healthcare professionals who can evaluate your specific situation.
Professional Consultation
Before making any health-related decisions, including changes to diet, supplementation, medication, exercise, or other health behaviours, you should consult with:
- Your primary care physician or general practitioner
- Registered dietitians or nutritionists
- Qualified healthcare professionals specialising in relevant areas
