Common questions about the blog
Short answers to what readers tend to wonder about. Anything else, just write to us.
Are the writers health professionals?
No. We publish under pen names and none of us is a doctor, dentist, dietitian or nurse. Our guides are general information, and we suggest speaking to a professional whenever a topic is personal.
Can I ask for a recipe to be covered?
Yes. Many of our kitchen guides began as a reader request, so tell us the dish and what tends to go wrong when you make it.
Do you offer meal plans or personal diet advice?
We do not. Individual eating plans should come from someone who knows your health history, such as your doctor or a registered professional.
How do I report a mistake?
Send us the article title and the sentence that looks wrong. Corrections are always dealt with first.
