Our editorial policy

1. How we choose topics

We choose topics based on what affects Hispanic families in the United States most — diabetes, blood pressure, wounds that won't close, heart health — and on the questions we hear most from the community. We also produce educational series, like "How Your Body Works," that explore one topic in depth across chapters.

What never decides a topic: no advertiser pays to appear in a guide or to have us write about their specialty.

2. Our sources

Each guide is written using official public-health sources and medical literature (government health agencies, medical associations, and published studies). When a claim comes from a specific source, we cite it with a link so you can verify it.

What we don't use as sources: social media rumors, forwarded message chains, or opinions from public figures without medical credentials. If a person talks about health in our videos or guides, they appear as an illustrative character or as a patient sharing their experience — never as a medical authority.

3. Review and updates

We review every publication before posting it: checking that the information is correct, the language is clear, and it doesn't promise anything medicine can't promise. Health information changes over time, so when a guide needs an important update, we update it.

4. Corrections

We're human and we can make mistakes. When we find an error in a publication — or someone reports one — we fix it as soon as possible and note the change on the same page.

Spotted something wrong? Report it via Instagram or Facebook and we'll review it.

5. Advertising kept separate from content

This site is free for patients because it's funded by advertising from doctors and clinics. These are the rules, with no exceptions:

• Ad placements are clearly labeled as advertising.
• No advertiser approves, edits, or decides the content of our guides and videos.
• If we ever publish sponsored content, it will carry a visible "Sponsored content" label.
• A specialist's contact information is never presented as our medical recommendation: it's advertising.

6. What we never publish

All of our content is educational: it helps you better understand your health and have a better conversation with your doctor — never to replace them.
