The expertise behind our advice

There’s no shortage of health and wellness information out there. So when you’re looking for answers about your body, knowing where that information comes from matters.

That starts with the people behind our content. Experienced writers and editors create our articles, working with a wide range of experts who bring specialist knowledge and real-world experience to their fields. From Health Care Professionals (HCP) and Registered Dietitians to fitness and wellness specialists, we look for contributors and reviewers with relevant experience and qualifications.

Before a Health Hub article reaches you, we carefully check the facts behind it. Our writers and editors use credible, up-to-date sources and turn complex science into clear, useful information.

For science-led content, we prioritise high-quality evidence, peer-reviewed research, including systematic reviews, randomised control trials, and national guidelines. We don’t just look at what a study says. We consider the strength of the evidence and how relevant it is to the topic.

We’re open about what the evidence can (and can’t) tell us. When research is limited, mixed or still developing, we’ll tell you. On top of this, we carry out additional checks on health and nutrition claims, with our science and regulatory teams reviewing content where needed.

Before anything is published, our editors make sure it’s clear, accurate, accessible, responsibly written and reliably sourced. And when an expert contributes to an article, they check and approve how we’ve represented their expertise before it’s published.
