Editorial Policy

Our editorial rule is simple: describe what the evidence shows, what it does not show and why the distinction matters.

Topic selection

We cover questions readers encounter in search, social media and consumer marketing. Popularity can explain why we examine a claim; it does not make the claim true.

Source hierarchy

We prioritise medicine regulators, official product information, clinical guidance, systematic reviews and relevant peer-reviewed human research. Early human studies, animal work and laboratory experiments may be included to explain research context, with their limits stated clearly. Seller pages and testimonials are not treated as proof of effectiveness.

How an article is prepared

  1. Define the exact substance, product or question.
  2. Check current regulatory and safety information.
  3. Find research that measures the claimed outcome in the relevant population.
  4. Separate established findings from uncertainty and marketing inference.
  5. Add practical red flags, source links and related reading.
  6. Check titles and descriptions for claims stronger than the article supports.

Medical accuracy and authorship

Future Health Guide is an editorial publication and does not imply clinical credentials the team does not hold. Articles are educational and are not a substitute for medical care. If specialist review is added to a page, the reviewer and their relevant credentials will be identified on that page.

Product comparisons

Comparison pages state whether products were physically tested. Where a guide is based on desk research, we use public manufacturer or retailer specifications, published evidence and safety considerations, and we label that method. Affiliate commission does not determine inclusion or ranking.

Commercial independence

Paid links are identified. We do not accept payment to describe an unapproved medicine as safe, effective or appropriate for personal use. Advertising and affiliate relationships do not give a commercial partner editorial approval.

Corrections and updates

We update material when important evidence, regulation, safety information or product availability changes. Send correction requests to contact@futurehealthguide.com with a source and the affected URL. Material changes may be reflected in the page’s updated date.
