Editorial guidelines

Plain, useful and honest

• We write in plain English, with short sentences and practical tips you can use this week.
• We focus on everyday foods and habits, not fad diets, detoxes or quick fixes.
• When the research on a food or supplement is early or mixed, we say so clearly.

How we check facts

We base health claims on published research and guidance from public health bodies, not on marketing or single small studies. We use careful words like "may help" when the evidence is limited.

Independence

We do not accept payment to feature a product or brand in an article. If that ever changes, we will label it clearly.

Corrections and updates

We review articles and update them when the evidence changes. If you spot an error, please tell us and we will fix it.

Not medical advice

Our articles are for general information. Read our full disclaimer.
