We do all we can to provide you with high-quality information but despite that some data may be out-of-date or incorrect, and the reason has nothing to do with us. All data at HappyForks should be treated as rough estimates only.

  1. HappyForks provides free-of-charge services.

We are not responsible for any errors in the information or data, and for their improper interpretation or understanding by the User.
  3. All data and reports should be treated as rough estimates because they may differ from the actual data.

Moreover, the same product may have some different nutrients depending on its country of origin.
  4. Despite diligent Website testing, there may be some errors occurring on the Website (dependent on or independent of HappyForks), in the presentation of source data or calculations, resulting in data published on the Website being incorrect or different from the source data.

This website cannot replace professional dietary recommendations or medical advice. The website should not be used for self-diagnostic or diagnostic purposes.

  1. The Website has educational and informational character only. No information from the Website should be treated as dietary recommendation or medical advice. No information published on the Website can provide basis for undertaking medical actions, self-treatment or changing the current method of treatment or diet. Depending on information from HappyForks is insufficient because it is only a simple tool, which does not take into account many factors. When you have doubts or when you want to change your diet, in particular a slimming diet, you should contact a qualified dietitian or doctor.
  2. Any change in the nutrition methods of persons with health problems, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers or small children has to be consulted with a doctor or dietitian, and must not be based on information from HappyForks. Dietary standards applied by HappyForks are for healthy people only.
  3. Suggested products which appear in the nutrition report are not dietary recommendations. The proposed items are selected using a simple computer algorithm, which does not take into account many individual factors for each person, therefore there might be products listed which are not suitable for the given individual.
  4. HappyForks should be used for private purposes only. It does not provide basis for formulating medical or dietary recommendations by doctors or dietitians, who should use professional tools, created specifically for them.
