Editorial policy

Useful first, careful throughout

Blimbi content should lead with a practical answer, then explain evidence, uncertainty, and safety. It avoids false urgency, moral judgment, keyword stuffing, invented anecdotes, before-and-after bait, and promises about weight or “belly fat.”

Review responsibilities

Every draft receives editorial review and source verification before publication. Articles on higher-risk topics, such as diabetes, medicines, side effects, older adults, or metabolic claims, are reviewed and signed off by the Blimbi editorial team, shown as “Reviewed by Blimbi editorial team” on the article.

That sign-off means the team checked each health claim against the sources cited on the page (registered studies, systematic reviews, and official guidance), removed or softened anything a source does not support, kept the safety guidance, and followed the sources and evidence policy. The Blimbi editorial team is not a doctor or registered dietitian, and its review is not a medical review. Blimbi articles are educational and are not medical advice; talk with a qualified professional about your own health, medicines, or eating pattern.

A named medical reviewer appears only when a real qualified professional has approved the material. Until that happens, Blimbi will not label content “medically reviewed.” Standard educational pages are scheduled for review at least every 12 months; safety or rapidly changing subjects at least every 6 months.

Localization is editorial work

English is not copied word for word into five markets. Each version may restructure an explanation and replace culturally narrow examples. It may not strengthen a claim, remove a safety qualification, or change the meaning of evidence.

Corrections and contact

A substantive correction should be visible in the content record and should mark translations for review. To question wording, report an error, or flag a missing qualification, email hi@blimbi.app.
