How We Review
NutrientWay readers use our guides to make daily health decisions. Building that trust takes a repeatable process, so this page documents exactly how our content is produced, checked, and updated.
Who Writes and Reviews
Each guide is written by our author and screened by the editor before publication. Pages that mention amounts, dosages, or warning signs are treated as higher stakes and get an extra pass: every statement of fact is tied back to a source listed below.
Sources We Use
We start with primary sources, not blogs or marketing pages:
Public pages of agencies such as the FDA, NIH, and CDC for recommended intakes and safety warnings. Peer-reviewed nutrition research when a claim needs stronger support. Product and supplement labels for serving sizes, ingredients, and ingredient lists in our roundups.
We do not accept incentives from supplement companies, and we do not write about products we cannot verify through public information or firsthand use.
Review Criteria
Before a guide is published or updated, we check:
Safety: dosages, upper limits, and warnings are stated plainly, and readers are directed to a health care professional for personal conditions. Accuracy: numbers are traced to a source, not a quote from another blog. Practicality: each guide says who an option fits, who should skip it, and the real costs and limits. Honesty: limitations of tests we ran are described, including what we could not verify.
Fact-Check Log
We recheck facts on a regular cycle and record major checks here:
| 2026-10-22 | Best Protein Powder guide | Rechecked serving sizes and ingredient lists against current product labels; confirmed protein-per-serving math. |
| 2026-10-23 | Nutrition foods guide | Rechecked portion guidance against NIH reference values and updated examples. |

Verified corrections are published on the affected page and noted in the guide. Readers who spot an error can report it through Contact Us.
AI Use
Some drafts are produced with AI assistance and then rewritten, fact-checked, and edited by humans before publication. Details are in our AI Disclosure and Editorial Policy.
Update Cadence
Every guide shows its last update date. Guides covering fast-moving topics are rechecked every quarter, and any page older than six months without a recheck loses its eligibility for our homepage featured list.
