Editorial standards

EXPERIENCE, EVIDENCE, AND OPINION MUST NEVER BLUR TOGETHER.

Trust starts by saying exactly what a page is—and what it is not.

01

LIVED EXPERIENCE

First-person experience. Fact and privacy reviewed.

02

SOURCE-BASED EXPLAINER

Plain-language summary with authoritative sources.

03

MEDICALLY REVIEWED

Real named qualified reviewer, credentials, scope, and date.

04

RESEARCH SUMMARY

Study type, population, limitations, funding, and care impact.

05

PATIENT / CAREGIVER STORY

Written consent, moderation, privacy choices, removal route.

06

OPINION

Clearly labeled perspective with no medical authority implied.

SOURCE ORDER

  1. Government and regulators.
  2. Major disease organizations and professional bodies.
  3. Peer-reviewed research and guidance.
  4. News only for discovery—not sole medical evidence.

NEVER MEDICAL EVIDENCE

Anonymous forums, AI summaries, sales pages, influencer claims, search snippets, and testimonials.
