Editorial Standards
How we read studies, quote sources, fact-check claims, and correct mistakes. Plain English. No filler.
Sourcing
We rely on three classes of sources, in priority order:
- Peer-reviewed primary research — PubMed Central, NEJM, Cell, Nature, Lancet, JAMA. Cited inline with PMID where available.
- Government and intergovernmental health bodies — CDC, FDA, NIH, NHS, EMA, WHO. Used for guideline-level claims.
- Named clinician-authored protocols — When we discuss the McCullough Base Spike Protein Detoxification Protocol, we cite the actual Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons publication and PMC reference. We summarize what the authors wrote. We do not endorse it.
We do not cite anonymous blog posts, social-media threads, or AI-generated content as primary evidence.
Quoting
Direct quotes are reproduced verbatim and linked to their source. We never paraphrase a quote and present it as a direct quote. If a quote is from a podcast or video, we cite the timestamp.
Ethics & Independence
We are an independent editorial site, not a medical organization, not a clinical practice, and not an "institute." Anyone who claims a credential on this site has that credential; we do not invent doctorates or affiliations.
We are skeptical of supplement marketing claims, including those for products we link to. When evidence on a supplement is mixed or weak, we say so.
Disclosures
This site participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you buy a supplement through a link on this site, we may earn a small commission at no cost to you. Affiliate revenue does not influence which products we cover, what we say about them, or which research we cite. Products we link to are products we believe match the published research dosing — not the highest-paying ones.
We do not accept paid sponsorships, paid placements, or "review for product" arrangements.
Corrections Policy
If you find a factual error, citation that doesn't support the claim it's attached to, broken study link, or a misattributed quote, email corrections. We aim to verify and correct within 5 business days. Material corrections are appended to the affected article with a dated note. Significant retractions are noted on the homepage's Corrections log.
Not Medical Advice
Nothing on this site is a substitute for a relationship with a licensed clinician. Supplements interact with prescription medications. Conditions vary. We summarize what published research says — we do not diagnose, treat, prescribe, or guarantee outcomes for any individual.
If we can't link you to the source, we don't publish the claim.
