Kalavik – Advanced Clinical Nutrition Scope

• Kalavik Studio’s Practice follows the Oslo Protocol for Personal Data Anonymisation complying for general use and research purposes, always after active given consent from our client.

• We practice by partnering with individuals and groups, professionals and researchers and collaborative client-centred activities to elicit, facilitate and empower the client to achieve their desired Nutrition and Health horizons

• We accompany, we listen, we guide and assist clients to develop personal awareness on their conditions and effects of food and nutritional tools, frame insights, improve skills and providing state of the art research and knowledge resources, as well as goal setting, action steps and accountability on their journey towards sustainable quality of life

• We support with tools and attention on their journey towards sustainable behavioural and lifestyle changes over periods of time, as inform of properties of substances and practices

• We offer information and resources from robust evidence-based sources, so they can develop awareness, draw their own conclusions, and gain a sense of empowerment in relation to their health and wellbeing. Such information and resources include recognised national and international authorities and public health guidelines, the latest research effects of any substance included on our ATLAS Space, as contact and referral to professionals that might benefit them

• While working in partnership with clients, we are always cognisant that their goals may be framed within the context of a treatment plan provided by the client’s professional health care provider(s), we accommodate our sessions leit motive to it and facilitate information for the client and their healthcare professionals to make their own decisions empowered with state of the art knowledge, alternatives, suggestions, resources.

• We frame research lines in our own field to investigate and explore with contributors and collaborators

​

Activities which lie outside the bounds

• We will always abstain from judging the situation, decisions, values, beliefs and motivations of any client

• Clinical assessing and diagnosing pathologies or symptoms, ordering functional tests to external sources, analysing external laboratory results, ordering a specific restrictive fixed diet or permanently excluding and eliminating food groups, as prescribing are actions not aligned with Kalavik Studio’s scope of practice nor our company culture and values to bridge you with empowering knowledge to expand your own autonomy and facilitate connection with other professional healthcare or wellness providers

• We will never claim to be the one agent to “prevent” or “cure” any presented pathology, responsibility of change is always addressed by the very client and their ownership of the journey to an expanded quality of life: we are sherpas in their journey

• Kalavik Studio’s Practice will always abstain from harming a patient, invalidate insurance cover, lead to a legal lawsuit or provoke bad reputation of the professional field.

 

Policy on Herbal Remedies and Psychoactive Substances

Kalavik’s goal is to provide evidence-based guidance and empower clients to make informed decisions about their health and well-being. This policy outlines my approach to discussing herbal remedies, including substances like Syrian rue (Peganum harmala), Psilocybe fungi, St John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum), and similar substances, which may have psychoactive properties.

 

1. Informational Purpose Core

• All information provided about Peganum harmala or any herbal remedy is strictly for educational purposes. It is not an endorsement or recommendation for its use in any specific context.

2. Safety and Responsibility

• Clients are encouraged to research and consult with other qualified professionals regarding any herbal substance they are considering.

• Kalavik emphasises safety by discussing potential risks, such as drug interactions, contraindications, and adverse effects, especially for substances with MAO-inhibiting properties.

 

3. Legal Considerations

• While some of these substances is not explicitly prohibited in Ireland or many European countries, its legal status is complex and may vary depending on its intended use.

• Clients are responsible for ensuring compliance with local laws and regulations regarding the possession and use of any herbal substance.

 

4. Ethical Boundaries

• Kalavik does not promote or facilitate the use of any herb in a manner that conflicts with legal or ethical standards.

• All discussions about herbs are framed within the context of traditional and scientific evidence.

 

5. Transparency and Documentation
