Our Core Publishing Principles
Evidence-Based Content
Every article is grounded in peer-reviewed research, published studies, and expert consensus. We prioritise scientific accuracy over trends.
Author Transparency
All contributors are identified with full credentials, qualifications, and relevant expertise. Conflicts of interest are disclosed prominently.
Source Attribution
We link to primary sources, cite research papers, and provide references for all major claims. Readers can verify our information independently.
Continuous Updates
When new evidence emerges, we update articles promptly and clearly note revisions. Scientific knowledge evolves, and so do we.
Our Fact-Checking Process
Research & Source Verification
Our editorial team begins each article with comprehensive research. We identify primary sources, published studies, and expert positions. All claims are cross-referenced against multiple reputable sources to confirm accuracy.
Internal Editorial Review
Every draft is reviewed by at least one senior editor for accuracy, clarity, and tone. We check for unsupported claims, outdated information, and potential bias before the article advances.
Expert Peer Review
Articles on scientific topics are reviewed by qualified experts in nutrition, biochemistry, or sports science. Reviewers assess factual accuracy and scientific validity, with feedback integrated before publication.
Final Publication & Archiving
Once approved, articles are published with full source attribution and publication dates. We maintain an archive of all versions and document any updates, ensuring transparency about how content has changed over time.

Corrections & Updates Policy
How We Handle Corrections
We strive for accuracy, but errors can occur. When readers or reviewers identify inaccuracies, we investigate promptly and transparently. All corrections are:
- Acknowledged clearly: We post a note at the top of the article explaining the error and how it was corrected.
- Dated: The correction note includes the date it was made, so readers know when the article was updated.
- Archived: We maintain a record of all versions of an article, so readers can see what changed and why.
- Referenced: If a correction involves a source update, we cite the new or clarified reference.

If you believe an article contains an inaccuracy or is out of date, we welcome your feedback. Please email us with:
- • The article title or URL

Content Updates & Refresh Cycle
Nutrition and wellness science evolves. We regularly review our most-read articles to ensure they reflect the latest evidence. Major updates include:
- • Quarterly reviews of top articles to check for newly published research
- • Annual deep-dives into foundational content (guides, principles, FAQs)
- • Immediate updates when significant new findings overturn previous consensus
When we update an article substantially, we note the refresh date and explain what changed.
