Fig & Flax e-books and this website are collections of home recipes for general information and enjoyment. They are not medical, dietary or nutritional advice, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or medical condition. They are not a weight-loss plan.

Our recipes, notes and nutrition estimates are researched and written by home cooks. They have not been written, checked or approved by a doctor, dietitian or registered nutritionist.

Nutrition figures

Calorie and protein figures are estimates based on typical values for the ingredients listed. They will vary with brands, portion sizes and swaps. Don't rely on them if you need precise figures for a medical reason.

Protein

Most people in the UK already eat enough protein. If you have kidney disease or another condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, are cooking for children, or have been given dietary advice, speak to your GP or a registered dietitian before changing how much protein you eat.

Allergies, wheat and gluten

Allergen notes are a guide based on the ingredients listed. Products change, so always read the labels of what you buy. “Wheat-free” does not mean “gluten-free”. If you have, or think you may have, coeliac disease, speak to your GP and don't cut out gluten before being tested. If you or anyone you cook for has a serious allergy, take care to avoid cross-contact in your kitchen.

Food safety

Cook meat, poultry, fish and eggs thoroughly; cool leftovers quickly and refrigerate; reheat until piping hot. Honey is not suitable for babies under 12 months. If you're pregnant, check NHS guidance on foods such as soft cheeses, oily fish and tuna.
