Editorial Process

At PoliHealthy, we are on a mission to empower you to make informed health decisions. Every piece of content is meticulously crafted to blend the latest research, real-life experiences, and diverse perspectives. This guide reveals the rigorousness of the editorial process. This ensures that everything we publish is accurate, inclusive, and impactful.

Commentary is encouraged once the facts are laid out; this is to allow writers creative freedom and to promote critical thinking of readers. However, passion does not supersede science or the facts.

Core Values for Content Creation

At PoliHealthy, we use the C.R.I.T.I.C Framework in all research efforts, even when using secondary or anecdotal sources.

The C.R.I.T.I.C framework was developed by the founder of PoliHealthy, Ella, to prevent mis/disinformation in health-related materials and content. All published materials undergo rigorous fact-checking.

At PoliHealthy, we tackle controversial issues in health and health policy through engaging opinion pieces, videos, essays, and debates. We encourage diverse perspectives, even those challenging established narratives, but all opinions must be grounded in thorough research and verifiable evidence.
