Editorial Policy — Home Remedy Center
Our promise
Every page must be helpful, safe, and honest. We write for people first, search engines second.
1) Sourcing & evidence
- We prioritize top-tier sources: national/international guidelines, major clinics, systematic reviews/meta-analyses, and peer-reviewed studies.
- Claims are framed with appropriate certainty: “may help,” “mixed evidence,” “limited evidence.”
- Each article includes “Evidence at a glance” and a Sources list linking to the exact pages or papers referenced.
2) Safety first (YMYL)
- Every article includes a Safety box: red flags (when to seek care) and common contraindications (e.g., no honey under 1 year, distilled/boiled water for nasal rinses).
- High-risk topics (pregnancy, infants, complex chronic disease) receive extra caution or are deferred.
3) Experience & transparency
- When feasible, we include Experience notes (setup, steps, simple measurements, date).
- If we haven’t tested a method, we say so and rely solely on credible sources.
4) Medically reviewed content
- When a licensed clinician reviews a page, we label it “Medically reviewed”.
- Reviewers are credited with a bio page and only review topics within their scope.
5) Independence & monetization
- Editorial decisions are independent of advertisers or affiliates.
- If a post includes affiliate links, we disclose before the first link.
- We do not accept payment for positive coverage, and we do not sell placement in “best” lists.
6) Corrections & updates
- We correct factual errors promptly and add a note at the bottom: what changed + date.
- Routine refresh: at least every 3–6 months for core pages, or sooner if guidance changes.
- Request a correction at contact@homeremedycenter.com.
7) Links & schema
- External links go to high-cred sources; affiliate links are marked
rel="sponsored"
. - We use structured data (Article/FAQ) and keep

in sync with updates.

FAQ
How do you choose sources?
We start with guidelines/major clinics, then systematic reviews/RCTs, and only then observational data. Lower-cred blogs/news are not used for efficacy claims.
What triggers a page update?
New guidance, new evidence, safety changes, or significant clarifications. Otherwise, we review core pages every 3–6 months.
Do affiliate relationships affect recommendations?
No. Our picks are based on use-case, safety, and performance. We link multiple retailers when possible.
How do you label reviewed pages?
We add “Medically reviewed by …” at the top with the reviewer’s credentials and last reviewed date, and we update schema accordingly.
Can I request a correction?
Yes—email contact@homeremedycenter.com with the page URL and details. We’ll review promptly.
