Our method
What “sourced” actually means here
Anyone can put a footnote number next to a claim. This is how we keep ourselves honest.
Start from the research
Every guide begins with the studies and official guidance themselves, not with recycled advice.
Tag every source
Each entry in the source list is tagged by type (peer-reviewed research, regulators, professional bodies, institutions) so you can see what a claim rests on.
Say where it runs out
Where the evidence is thin, preliminary or disputed, the guide says so in the text, rather than picking the tidier story.
