Health information with its receipts
Every health claim here points to where it came from.
We write about daily habits, medical terminology, and published research — and every claim links straight to the CDC, NIH, WHO, or PubMed page behind it. When a topic needs a clinician, we hand you to one nearby.
Citations that land on the actual page
Footnote numbers link to the specific document, not an organization's homepage. Check any claim in seconds.
We name the reviewer and their actual credential
A senior nutrition student is called a nutrition student. A practicing physician is called a physician. We don't inflate titles.
No diagnosis — just directions
When something needs clinical judgment, we send you to the directory instead of guessing on your behalf.

Editorial standards
Every article clears four steps before it publishes
This is the whole process, in public. If a step gets skipped, the article doesn't carry a fact-check label.
STEP 1Pick the sources
Only the CDC, NIH, WHO, PubMed, and recognized medical bodies qualify. Blogs, supplement retailers, and AI-generated content are rejected.
STEP 2Write and cite
Every medical claim carries a footnote pointing at the exact page that supports it — never a generic link to an institution's front door.
STEP 3A qualified reader checks it
A senior nursing, medical, or nutrition student — or a practicing physician. Their real role appears verbatim in the article.
STEP 4Re-check on a schedule
Every article is reviewed at least once every 12 months. The last review date sits directly under the headline.
