All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.

3. Health & Wellness:
The following legal terms also apply as to this Agreement:
A. Non-medical Background:
Michelle Rankin holds a degree in Exercise Science, a license in Massage Therapy, is trained as a clinical hypnotherapist, and has studied nutrition extensively. Such person is not now, has never been, and does not claim to be a medical doctor, psychologist, psychiatrist, mental health counselor, or drug and/or disease-treatment prescribing health care professional. All of the goods, services, information and/or materials that we are providing you under this Agreement are in no way connected to or dependent upon such person’s past or current licenses and/or certifications. The information in our programs, goods and/or services is based on our personal experiences and on the experiences of our past and current members and participants and is shared for general educational purposes only and for no other purpose.
B. No Medical Advice:
Our programs have produced above-average results, but they are not a quick-fix, a cure-all, or a substitute for sound medical advice. We strongly recommend you consult with a health care professional before embarking on this journey. Nothing claimed by us in our programs, nor on any of our websites, or in any of our materials, is intended to be medical advice, nor is it anyway a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Nothing shared by us is intended as medical diagnosis, treatment or cure. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking medical advice because of something you have read or heard from us, on any of our websites, in any of our materials, or for any other reason. Whether or not you choose to obtain the consent of your medical doctor or other qualified health care provider and/or work with your physician or other qualified health care provider while using any information received from us, you still are agreeing to accept full responsibility for your own actions and inactions including those of your dependents.
C. Consult Often with Your Medical Doctor or Health Care Professional:
Techniques and methods for weight loss, ketogenic dieting, fertility and reproductive system health, healing pain, overcoming habits, and emotional eating are shared throughout this program. We are not mental health professionals, and anyone with a history of trauma should consult a mental health professional as you progress through our programs. Experience shows that adopting a low carb or ketogenic diet often can create dramatic physiological changes. Therefore, if you are currently taking any medications as prescribed by your doctor or health care professional, then your medications may need to be adjusted frequently; please consult with your doctor or health care professional. This is not a promise that your medications will change, just a possibility you may want to consider based on our past experience.
D. Weight Loss Results Will Vary:
No claims about weight loss or healing should ever be considered typical because the average person on any weight loss program either never begins the program, doesn’t follow many or all of the steps of the program, or drops out of the program. Every person’s body is unique; therefore, the rate of weight loss on any of our programs will be different for each person. Weight loss while following one of our programs can be significant, leading to an amazing transformation. This transformation depends fully on the amount of effort and follow-up that you put into the program.
E. No Professional Advice:
Nothing we provide for you here is intended to replace any form of competent professional advice in any form. If you are in need of professional advice, including medical, physical, mental or emotional health advice, or any other form of professional advice, then you should seek out a competent professional in that area who can ensure you are provided help that is specific to your particular past-and-current situation and circumstances and who can provide you with the personal follow-up you may require for your ongoing health and well-being and that of your dependents.
4. No FDA Evaluation
As applicable, the advice shared on this site has not been evaluated by the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA). The products and methods mentioned or recommended on this site are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any illness or disease, nor are the products and methods intended to replace proper medical help.

If, for whatever reason, the Company does not provide a refund/return policy on its marketing materials for one of its products or services, then no refund or return shall be available for such product or service, as long as the Company already has made delivery or availability of the product or a materially complete rendering of its service to you. Company’s refund/return policies may differ from product to product, service to service and/or from time to time, and these policies may change looking forward at any time at the Company’s sole discretion.

The return policy for group coaching in the True North Keto Slimdown program is as follows:
I am confident that I can help you optimize a ketogenic diet to help you meet your weight loss goals. On the outside chance that you do not lose any weight on my program, I offer the following return policy:
If you follow the diet plan exactly as written for 30 days and fail to lose any weight, simply email me a copy of your diet log in My Fitness Pal or another comparable app, your scale pictures from day one and day 30, and proof of doing all the mindset work.
Allow me to troubleshoot your diet, then implement my suggestions exactly as outlined for two more weeks. If we repeat this process twice and you follow my suggestions exactly and we still can’t get you dropping weight, I’ll happily refund your money in full.
The total weight loss equation includes implementing the diet properly as well as overcoming self-sabotage and emotional eating. You must provide proof of having completed all the exercises in the mindset modules of the program.
Prior to issuing or processing any form of refund and/or return that may be available, at Company’s sole discretion, it may require you to certify with it in writing that you already have fully completed and fulfilled your obligation hereunder to thoroughly search for, and to permanently delete and destroy, all of the digital or electronic Company-provided documents or materials, and to return (only at the Company’s sole discretion: and/or destroy) all physical Company documents or materials that are in your possession, including without limitation any or all copies or printouts you may have made of any Company documents or materials. You agree to make any such returns at your sole expense, with their arrival at the Company to be made prior to or on any refund deadline, without any material waste or breakage; the Company may await the safe arrival of your return before issuing any refund. Also, prior to issuing any form of refund and/or return that may be available, at Company’s sole discretion, it may require that you re-certify and pledge to continue to uphold your obligations under these Terms and Conditions and under any other agreement you have made with the Company, the terms and provisions of all of which shall continue to apply to the parties hereof and continue as valid and binding agreements, including after any such refund or return is completed, for the longer period of (i) the longest period available under applicable law, or (ii) thirty-five years after the date of your request for a refund and/or return. Company shall not be liable for any untimely or improper refund or return requests, or for any loss of profits or costs, or for any direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, including costs associated with the procurement of substitute goods or services (whether or not Company was or should have been aware or advised of the possibility of such damage), arising out of or associated with any loss, suspension or interruption of service, termination of these terms and conditions, use or misuse of our materials or content, or other performance of services hereunder.
