The Ryerson Health Promotion web site consists of a series of articles regarding a wide range of health topics. Most of the information which appears within the Ryerson Health Promotion web site has been developed by students, for students. Some of these students are in health related programs; however, none of them are medical practitioners. Some of these students are placement students who work on web articles for academic credit. Other web articles are written by students who are working with or volunteering for the campus Health Promotion program. Whenever possible, references from a reputable and/or scholarly source are provided to substantiate statements made. No contribution of funding or services were received from commercial organizations or for-profit agencies.

It is important to discuss the information you find on this and other related web sites with a health care practitioner. This web site is intended for informational purposes only. It is not a basis for clinical decision-making. It cannot substitute for professional medical judgment and/or treatment.

Health information can be very complex and should be considered in the context of your own particular circumstances, with the guidance of a physician or other health care provider who is familiar with your individual situation.

If you have any questions or comments about the information on this web site, please contact the Coordinator, Campus Health Promotion: phone (416) 979-5000, ext 7663; fax (416) 979-5073 or email us at healthpromo@ryerson.ca .
