Sources Policy & Evidence Standards

Which sources we prioritize

For health questions, priority goes to relevant government health resources, recognized clinical guidance, systematic reviews and peer-reviewed research. Product labels and official seller terms are primary sources for what is disclosed or offered, but are not independent proof of a health benefit. Readers can start with the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements consumer guide and FDA consumer information.

Relevance matters as much as reputation

A reputable source can still address a different formulation, dose, study population or outcome. Citations should support the statement next to them. A source about ingredient biology should not be presented as a trial of a branded supplement. The article should explain when evidence is indirect, preliminary, mixed or unavailable.

Product information and commercial sources

Labels, manufacturer disclosures and checkout terms can help verify product facts. Attribute commercial claims clearly. A sales page, affiliate promotion or vendor testimonial is not treated as independent clinical evidence. Where information conflicts, describe the conflict and avoid silently choosing the more persuasive claim.

Testimonials, complaints and AI-assisted work

Customer accounts may identify usability, ordering or service concerns, but are not controlled evidence. We do not fabricate customer stories or imply a typical result without support. Automated tools may assist with organization or drafting; they are not cited as scientific authority and do not replace checking the underlying information.

Citation and correction standards

Use real, relevant source links and avoid citing a source that was not reviewed. Check the publication context and whether a finding has been superseded or withdrawn where that affects the conclusion. Broken links, inaccurate attribution and material errors can be reported through Contact NaturalHealthys. Publication dates alone do not determine quality; relevance and evidence strength still matter.

Editorial accountability

Our editorial methodology describes how these standards fit a review. Natural Health care is the website’s editorial identity, not a medical credential. Read our affiliate disclosure for commercial relationships and medical disclaimer for the limits of general health content. Updated 6 October 2026.
