How we work
Editorial Policy
Our editorial process is designed to produce useful, independent and proportionate wellness education.
Independence and conflicts
Editorial conclusions are not sold. Sponsorships, affiliate relationships and material conflicts must be clearly disclosed. Sponsored content must be labelled before a reader engages with it.
Accuracy and evidence
Health claims require authoritative support and careful wording. We prefer public-health agencies, professional associations, recognised medical institutions, clinical guidelines and peer-reviewed research. We do not fabricate studies, statistics, quotes or credentials.
Language standards
Mental-health, sexual-health and substance-use coverage uses person-first, non-stigmatising language. We avoid diagnostic labels for readers, sensational warning signs and promises that a lifestyle practice cures illness.
Updates, corrections and AI assistance
We display publication and updated dates, make substantial factual corrections transparently and review sensitive content when guidance changes. AI tools may assist workflow, but editors are accountable for verification, framing and final publication.
