Editorial Policy

Updated: 29 June 2026

Editorial Principles

  • We put readers before commissions.

  • We aim to publish accurate, balanced and up-to-date information.

  • We clearly distinguish evidence from opinion.

  • We explain uncertainty where scientific evidence is limited.

  • We correct factual errors when identified.

How We Research

  • We use peer-reviewed research, clinical guidelines, regulatory information, manufacturer specifications and other reputable sources where appropriate.

  • We compare evidence across multiple sources rather than relying on a single study or marketing claim.

  • We clearly state when evidence is limited, emerging or inconclusive.

How We Recommend Products

  • Our recommendations are based on the overall balance of evidence, safety, quality, value, transparency and suitability for UK readers.

  • We do not recommend products simply because they have an affiliate programme.

  • We may recommend products that do not pay us a commission if we believe they are the better choice.

Editorial Independence

  • Our editorial decisions are made independently of commercial relationships.

  • Manufacturers and affiliate partners do not approve or influence our editorial recommendations.

Affiliate Disclosure

Some pages contain affiliate links. If you purchase through these links we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This helps support our work but never determines which products we recommend.

AI and Human Oversight

We may use AI tools to assist with research, drafting and editing. Every article is reviewed by the Now You Know Life editorial team before publication.

Medical Information

Our content is provided for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

We summarise published scientific evidence but our articles are not medically reviewed unless explicitly stated on the relevant page.

Updates and Corrections

We review important content periodically and update articles when significant new evidence, regulatory changes or product developments arise.

If we discover a factual error, we will correct it as soon as reasonably possible.
