Our Editorial Standards
Every article published on Health Digest follows a strict evidence-based editorial process:
- Primary sources only — we cite peer-reviewed research, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, not secondary health websites
- No sensationalism — we report what the evidence actually shows, including its limitations and the quality of the data
- Regular updates — articles are reviewed and updated as new research emerges
- Clear distinction between established evidence, emerging research and expert opinion
