About the “Fact-Checked” Weight-Loss Articles

Some articles on this site look into viral weight-loss trends, including ones falsely attributed to celebrities or doctors. Those articles are written by cross-referencing public statements from the named individuals and reporting from established outlets (for example TODAY.com or Snopes), not by conducting original medical research. Where a claim could not be verified, that is stated directly rather than implied either way.

Talk to a Professional Before You Rely On Any of This

This is especially true if any of the following apply to you:

  • You have a diagnosed medical condition, including diabetes, a thyroid condition, or a kidney condition
  • You have had bariatric or other weight-loss surgery
  • You have a current or past history of disordered eating
  • You are pregnant or nursing
  • You take prescription medication, including any weight-loss or blood sugar medication
  • You are considering a significant change to your diet for medical reasons

Recipes and habits described as “low-risk” on this site are general statements for typical healthy adults, not a personal medical assessment.
