Editorial disclaimer

1. General purpose

Kainos publishes educational material about exercise, physiology, recovery, and healthy aging for adults. The publication does not provide individual medical, psychological, nutritional, legal, or financial advice.

2. Personal responsibility

Readers decide whether information is relevant to them. Training history, symptoms, medication, sleep, climate, and clinical conditions can change what is appropriate. Discuss meaningful changes with a qualified professional.

3. No guarantees

Research findings describe groups and probabilities, not promises for one person. Kainos does not guarantee a particular performance, health, body composition, or longevity outcome.

4. Warning signs

New chest discomfort, fainting, severe breathlessness, sudden weakness, or other urgent symptoms require appropriate medical attention. Do not use an article to delay emergency care.

5. Sources

We aim to identify sources and distinguish evidence from interpretation. A cited source may later be corrected or updated, so readers should inspect the original material where decisions are important.

6. Contributors

Contributor biographies describe editorial roles and should not be read as a clinical endorsement. Professional qualifications may vary by jurisdiction.

7. Commercial independence

Advertising and sponsorship are separated from editorial decisions. Paid placements are labelled and do not determine conclusions.

8. External links

External sites have their own practices and claims. Kainos cannot verify every statement or guarantee their availability.

9. Corrections

Report a material error using contact.php. We review the source, record the decision, and make a visible correction when warranted.

10. Date

This disclaimer is effective 5 October 2026 and is reviewed as the publication changes.

Readers should consider the date, source, and context of each article before applying an idea. A general description cannot account for a person's full history, current symptoms, medication, access to supervision, or local conditions. The practical consequence is that an article may be useful for forming questions without being a personal instruction. If uncertainty remains, pause and seek advice from an appropriately qualified professional.

Corrections and source questions may be sent to Jl. Kebon Jeruk Raya No. 120, RT.005/RW.007, Kebon Jeruk, Jakarta Barat, DKI Jakarta 11530, Indonesia, or +62 21 7891 0345. We aim to acknowledge reports within 7 business days and review material concerns during the next editorial cycle. This disclaimer was reviewed on 5 October 2026; later revisions will identify the date and the reason for a material change.

The scope includes articles, guides, summaries, images, newsletters, downloadable material, and general statements made through Kainos channels. It does not create a professional relationship between Kainos and a reader. A general explanation may help someone prepare a question, compare terminology, or understand a source, but it cannot account for examination, history, current medication, environment, or access to care. Readers should use the publication as background information rather than as a personal decision system. This distinction remains important when an article discusses exercise, nutrition, recovery, or aging.

Individual context can change the meaning of an otherwise ordinary suggestion. For example, heat, sleep disruption, a recent change in activity, or a known condition may affect whether a reader should participate in a planned session. A reader who is uncertain should pause, use a cautious approach, and obtain guidance from an appropriately qualified professional. Kainos does not review private medical circumstances through ordinary contact forms and does not ask readers to send them. Information submitted voluntarily may be deleted or redacted during routine correspondence handling.

Research summaries are time-sensitive and may be revised, withdrawn, or interpreted differently by later work. A source reference is included to improve traceability, not to turn a population-level finding into an individual prediction. Kainos records the publication date, source checked, and material correction where practical. A reader who identifies a mismatch should provide the URL, passage, and source or context that prompted the concern. Corrections are assessed on substance, clarity, and whether the existing wording could reasonably mislead.

Contributor descriptions identify editorial responsibilities and do not imply endorsement by a clinic, institution, or professional body. Commercial relationships are reviewed under the advertising and editorial policies, and a paid placement does not change this disclaimer. External links may contain advice, claims, or availability information that changes after publication. Readers should review the destination's current terms and privacy notice independently. Reports are acknowledged within 7 business days where contact details are supplied and are normally reviewed within 30 days.

Corrections, source questions, and concerns may be sent to contact.php or to Jl. Kebon Jeruk Raya No. 120, RT.005/RW.007, Kebon Jeruk, Jakarta Barat, DKI Jakarta 11530, Indonesia, phone +62 21 7891 0345. The disclaimer was reviewed on 5 October 2026. A later material change will be dated and described so readers can distinguish an editorial update from a change in the underlying source.
