Publishing standards
Editorial Policy
This policy explains how Health For Life Guide plans, writes, edits, labels and updates health information.
Last updated: 20 July 2026Accuracy and reader safety
Articles should accurately represent the available evidence, avoid exaggerated certainty and distinguish established guidance from emerging research, personal experience and opinion.
Content must not tell readers to ignore professional care, stop prescribed treatment or use a product as a guaranteed cure.
Authorship and accountability
Articles identify the writer. Anthony Wedderburn is responsible for the original reporting, research and plain-English presentation unless another contributor is named.
We do not use fictional authors, fabricated biographies or invented medical reviewers.
Medical review
The phrase “medically reviewed” is used only when a real qualified professional has reviewed the specific article. Their name, relevant credentials and role must be visible.
Where no clinician reviewed the article, we state that clearly and rely on careful sourcing, limitations and general educational framing.
Independence and conflicts
Editorial conclusions should not be purchased. Free products, affiliate commissions, sponsorships and other material relationships must be disclosed.
Sponsored content must be labelled and should not imitate independent reporting.
Use of AI and editorial tools
AI may assist with outlining, transcription, grammar, formatting or research organisation. It must not be treated as a medical authority or as the final fact-checker.
A human publisher remains responsible for checking claims, sources, context, links, dates, calculations and disclosures before publication.
Updates and material changes
Articles may be updated when guidance, evidence, prices, availability or product information changes. Material corrections should follow the Corrections Policy rather than being silently concealed.
